Runway and Airpark Courtesy
Practice good noise abatement procedures when conditions allow – Land right downwind for 13 and take-off on 31. Always remain west of the runway. Our goal is to encourage a good relationship with the surrounding homes, residents and township. Avoid flying over the town of Alpine whenever possible. With the increasing mix of jets, homebuilts, military trainers to antique biplanes, we have to be more aware and accommodating to the situation.
Announce Position and Intention for Taxing
for run-up use the backcountry technique of parking at a 45 degree angle to runway for a good visual of traffic pattern and runway itself. After landing consider pulling off on one of the several taxi/ramps along runway if there are others in the pattern. Call for back taxi after other traffic has landed. And be aware there may be service vehicles on the runway from time to time. Thank you, be safe and enjoy the skies.
