1. All pilots must be members of AMA, SLO Flyers, or be members of the Cal Poly Aero Dept. Flying must be in accordance with safe and reasonable practice. Review section on Safety for all applicable information. Student flyers should be given special consideration.
2. Before turning on your radio, assure your frequency is secure. (See section on Radio and Frequency Control.) Position your aircraft so as not to endanger others or blow prop wash, dirt, etc., on others or their aircraft.
3. Do not break in an engine by prolonged operation in pit area. Go to place remote to all EFR activities.
4. Pilots must remain behind the barrier on flight line throughout each flight. Glider pilots may either fly in the designated glider region or behind the flight line barrier. Retrieving disabled aircraft must be called to other pilots. No more than two (2) people may attend each pilot and shall not annoy, obstruct or interfere with other pilots on the line.
5. Flight line operations between pilots of helicopters, powered planes or sailplanes will clearly and loudly call the appropriate warnings: • Entering Runway • Dead on Runway • Ready for Take Off • Ready to Land • Dead Stick or Other Flight Emergency • Runway Clear. • Touch and Go Landing • Low Flyby
6. No one may be on runway during flight operations except: • Those directly involved in official Cal Poly Academic Research Programs requiring such access. • Person or persons retrieving downed aircraft, in which event all pilots on line must be warned and understand before said retrieval is initiated.
7. Flight operations may be conducted anywhere within the overfly airspace above and surrounding the EFR site, except spectator areas, pit area, glider area and flight line.
8. Any aerobatics or high speed passes by any type of aircraft will be beyond the west edge of the runway. Touch and go landings may be performed only with loud announcement and if no other pilot is in danger. Dead stick landings must be called and have priority. Rotary wing aircraft using the runway will respect established takeoff and landing pattern.
9. All property and/or personal damage/injury incurred or caused by a pilot shall be totally his responsibility.
10. When work activity is present in the vineyard or adjacent ranch land, pilots will adjust their pattern to avoid flying over workers. No flying when mowing, weed whacking or working on the field. This includes work on the fences, barriers, structures or pit area fixtures.
