FAA Information for Pilots

Notices

The FNT FAA Air Traffic Control Tower and Kalamazoo/Great Lakes Approach are running two trial periods regarding departure procedures from FNT in an attempt to improve coordination between FNT and Great Lakes Approach. These trial periods may impact local pilot operations in the following ways:

  • All VFR departures must be assigned at or below 2,500’ MSL.
  • VFR departures will only be assigned a heading 30 degrees on either side of the runway heading of the active runway.
  • Any departures on runways other than the active must be requested by FNT ATCT through the Great Lakes Approach (may result in short delays for this type of request).

This testing period will last until July 1, 2021 at which point the program will be evaluated for effectiveness which may result in permanent changes to the Letter of Agreement between FNT ATCT and Great Lakes Approach.

What Travelers are Saying!

There is a lot to like about FNT. The location, the ease of entry/exit. Few passengers. It is just low stress, low pressure. It is obviously small, but it does not pretend to be anything other than what it is: a nice, regional airport. It works and it's easy.
