Wiuii'i -jvm an a i, additional
rales for the conduct of flight
will apply. Among the new rules,
ore requires that pilots operat
ing to, from, or on an airport at
which a Federally-operated tower
is in operation, must maintain two
way radio communications w i t h
the tower, while within the air
port traffic area.
In Alaska, the new amendment
effects aircraft, operating to and
from Anchorage and Fairbanks
International Airport, Lake Hood,
Me;till. Galena, Juneau, King
Salmon, and Annette Island Air
ports. The rule also applies to op
erations at Eielson and Ehnen
dorf Air Force Bases, Bryant and
Fort Waimvright Army Air Fields
and to Kodiak and Adak Naval
Airports,
The .requirement for two-way
radio is one of several significant
new rules for the operation of
aircraft at airports with a con
trol tower. A principal objective
of the regulation is standardiza
tion of fiictit procedures at con
