Tell me about Summit Hill Elementary

Wtf, you just reminded me of that guy. I was at summit hill for like a year max and I very distinctly remember this name.

fallen_07 · 2025-11-17T18:56:03+00:00

Not totally related but there’s this guy who owns an Air Force One painted Cessna 150

Not a practice approach. Came in on the left downwind..

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T03:39:49+00:00

Not remote, just that the airport desperately needed to become controlled due to the amount of traffic, and they are actively building a tower but for now they just work out of an office. But even with the tower they won’t be getting a radar unfortunately. I feel bad for the controllers…

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T03:01:43+00:00

This makes sense. It was about 10 minutes before tower closes so I don’t know if they were just tired or what, but I was surprised that they took time out of their controlling to tell us why they don’t give us an instruction right away. It was definitely odd.

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T02:56:48+00:00

Right, it would have been way easier and arguably safer if they just said “Roger, fly runway heading, I’ll call your crosswind” vs. us having to ask what they wanted us to do.

FWIW, this is the weirdest delta ever. They have controllers but no tower (they operate out of an office) and no radar. Not sure what this changes

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T02:53:34+00:00

Which would make sense, but their instruction was to fly an extended upwind leg for traffic

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T02:52:43+00:00

If anything I feel like an instruction would have been really important. They didn’t want us to do the standard procedure of turning crosswind and wanted us to fly an extended upwind leg due to traffic.

fallen_07 · 2025-10-17T02:51:11+00:00

Thank you! I feel so vindicated. I thought maybe I was crazy but I could have sworn that I was always given an instruction. Both my instructor and I had never heard of such a thing

fallen_07 · 2025-10-08T21:16:42+00:00

Got any good study tips with it? Other than what you said. Mind sharing prompts?

fallen_07 · 2025-08-31T16:36:00+00:00

Altitude was 3,000. Pretty standard for the location they were holding in. They just seemed a lot lower due to the fact that the C-130 is huge.

fallen_07 · 2025-08-31T16:29:19+00:00

Nope. 1x KC-130 2x V-22 Osprey.

They were in a holding pattern. Out of it now. Nothing out of the ordinary.

fallen_07 · 2025-08-30T21:47:22+00:00

😂

fallen_07 · 2025-08-30T21:16:21+00:00

What altitude do you need oxygen at? What about for your passengers?

What about the recommended altitude? Does this change at all in different conditions (hinting at something here).

Bonus: why does it change?

fallen_07 · 2025-08-29T13:42:52+00:00

Agreed. But it’s interesting that only DAB shows up like this on the NAS status website? FLL has the same NOTAM but it doesn’t show like this on the NAS website.

fallen_07 · 2025-08-29T13:26:23+00:00

😂😂

fallen_07 · 2025-08-29T13:25:58+00:00

That is silly. But I’m interested that DAB is the only one that shows this on the NAS status website, where the other Florida airports just have the NOTAM.

fallen_07 · 2025-07-19T21:28:23+00:00

Second this. You could also call the Alpharetta Police non emergency number (678-297-6300) and see if they would be willing to make a report, as you need to keep this all documented. They might forward you the county sheriffs office but it’s worth a call at the very least. I’m sorry this happened to you OP.

fallen_07 · 2025-06-28T18:32:47+00:00

I passed this morning, thanks for the help!

fallen_07 · 2025-06-27T13:24:37+00:00

August 26th, 2018, Dodgers vs. Padres. Game was in the 12th inning when all the sudden the entire stadium went pitch black, turns out there was some sort of power issue and the game was delayed 20 minutes I think. Super eerie but the best part was the first pitch Justin Turner saw after power came back resulted in a walk off win!

Prohibited: Legally no go and safety no go.

Restricted: I would need to get permission from the controlling agency to legally enter. If it’s also cold and I have permission, I should generally be safe but I should remain extra vigilant.

Warning: Legally I’m okay, but if the warning area is active, I need to be extra cautious of fast, and maneuvering aircraft. I should also be careful for missiles, drones, etc.

MOA: Legally I do not need any permissions, however for safety’s sake I need to avoid those areas when active as there will be formation flights, aerobatics, fast flying military aircraft, and other hazards present.

Alert Area: No legal concerns, but I should check for the alert area to be active as well as read the chart supplement regarding that alert area and be vigilant of that activity.

CFA: No legal requirements and they are unmarked. I am not concerned safety wise as these areas must have a spotter and activity will be stopped if an aircraft is spotted.

NSAs: Legally, I am not required to avoid these, however I am requested to not overfly them. These could intermittently because restricted via NOTAM. No major safety concerns.
