 (s):**Runway Safety & Pilot Controller Forum at Flagstaff Airport**&nbs
 p; \nThe program will start off with a 1-hour presentation on ATIS/ASO
 S,- “how it works - or doesn’t work,” by Fred Gibbs, (FAAST Team Lead Repre
 sentative for N. AZ)\nJoin us for a three hour interactive discussion tailo
 red for all users of the Northern Arizona airspace surrounding Flagstaff Ai
 rport. Have you ever wondered what controllers really mean when they say “H
 old Short” or “Stand By”?  Curious about the best practices for naviga
 ting the Phoenix VFR corridors or obtaining instrument approaches efficient
 ly?  Want to clarify what to do when you're cleared to land but there’
 s still an aircraft on the runway?  Why can’t we “Line up and wait” li
 ke other airports?  What does 5000 and 5 actually mean on the ATIS?&nb
 sp;\nThis is a unique opportunity to engage directly with Air Traffic Manag
 er JD Scurnopoli from Flagstaff Tower, Samir Kanuga (FAAST Team Lead Repres
 entative specializing in runway safety), and Matt Schorman from Phoenix App
 roach Control to gain valuable insights into air traffic operations and run
 way safety.   \n This forum is your chance to ask these
  questions and more.  Designed to foster better communication and unde
 rstanding between pilots and air traffic controllers, this session aims to 
 enhance safety, reduce common errors, and ensure smooth operations in the N
 . Arizona airspace, and specifically, the Flagstaff airspace.  \n
 **Pilots of all experience levels are welcome.** Don’t miss this opportunit
 y to improve your skills, clarify procedures, and connect with your local a
 ir traffic team.\nThank you to Wiseman Aviation for hosting us at their FBO
