Vigilant lookout, proactive announcements, early action. Always file an airprox report after evasive action.

Background

Recent incidents have required evasive action to avoid collisions in Teuge Airport airspace. All such incidents must be reported for collective learning and safety improvement. The procedure below is the standard for collision avoidance and reporting at E-Flight.

Key points

Maintain a vigilant lookout

Regular visual scans, including wing areas

Monitor radio for nearby traffic

Our white aircraft are hard to spot — assume others may not see you

Be proactive

Announce your position clearly on the radio

Use landing lights near high-traffic areas

Choose odd altitudes (1250' instead of 1000'/1500') to deconflict vertically

Take early action

Adjust altitude when traffic is reported nearby

Plan ahead when approaching reporting points

Don't hesitate to modify route for separation

Required actions

Scan continuously, including wing-blind areas, during all phases of flight

Use landing lights in high-traffic areas, even in good visibility

If you take evasive action, file an airprox report — always
