Previously, pilots at these \"GAAP\" (General Aviation Aerodrome Procedures) airports could use runways without explicit clearance in certain circumstances. This direction closed that gap by mandating radio contact and approval.\n\n**Key detail**\nThe rule only applied when ATC services were actually operating at the aerodrome."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes","history":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes/history","analysis":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/casa-330-09-direction-all-pilots-operating-at-gaap-aerodromes/documents"}}
