Private Pilot Private Exam

In an alert area, all pilots share the responsibility for collision avoidance, regardless of their altitude or flight rules. An alert area is designated to inform pilots of areas where there's a high volume of unusual aerial activity, such as glider operations, parachuting, or other activities that may require additional attention. While air traffic controllers do provide guidance and information, they are not always present in all alert areas, especially where traffic is not under their direct jurisdiction. Therefore, it is essential for all pilots operating in these areas to remain vigilant and maintain situational awareness to prevent collisions. Each pilot must actively assess their surroundings and communicate with others if necessary, ensuring that safety remains a shared priority.
