KJVL Air Traffic Tower Manager Lance Denham (12:00 PM)

 “Flying in Controlled Airspace and Interacting with Air Traffic Control”.

Controlled airspace is not something you should fear or try to avoid! Tower controllers are there as part of your flying team to assist you in a safe transition for a landing to a departure from the airport. The extra eyes and ears to advise of additional traffic near you and set you up for a safe sequence in the landing pattern is a benefit to you.
