CTAF And Tower Hours PE Hours of Operation
Posted: Sat Oct 24, 2015 12:45 pm
Good Day,
Question from a newbie and I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere.
I am wondering about the use of CTAF during two situations:
1. During PE normal hours of operation, are the tower controllers there all the time regardless of published tower attended times? Or, are published tower operating hours simulated by the PE controllers. That said, if they do not "occupy" the tower outside of operating hours, I assume we use CTAF as published for that tower?
2. Outside of PE operating hours, when logged in, do we treat all airports as if they were non-towered? And if so, do we use the published tower frequency or the published CTAF frequency?
Thanks in advance.
