A reminder that, with fire-fighting season in full swing across much of the western United States, Temporary Flight Restrictions will be abundant.
Check NOTAMS before each flight. Phoenix-Mesa Gateway (IWA) and Prescott (PRC) airports are often used as staging airports for firefighting aircraft. Be alert for possible procedure changes at those airports to accommodate them.
This reminder is among several others from the July 10 meeting of the Arizona Flight Training Workgroup.
