PROVIDE SERVICEProvide airport traffic control service based onlyupon observed or known traffic and airportconditions.NOTE−When operating in accordance with CFRs, it is theresponsibility of the pilot to avoid collision with otheraircraft. However, due to the limited space around terminallocations, traffic information can aid pilots in avoidingcollision between aircraft operating within Class B,Class C, or Class D surface areas and the terminal radarservice areas, and transiting aircraft operating inproximity to terminal locations.3−1−2. PREVENTIVE CONTROLProvide preventive control service only to aircraftoperating in accordance with a letter of agreement.When providing this service, issue advice orinstructions only if a situation develops whichrequires corrective action.NOTE−Preventive control differs from other airport traffic controlin that repetitious, routine approval of pilot action iseliminated. Controllers intervene only when they observea traffic conflict developing.3−1−3.
