Approval must be obtained prior to moving an aircraft or vehicle onto the movement area during the hours an Airport Traffic Control Tower is in operation.
1. Always state your position on the airport when calling the tower for taxi instructions. 2. The movement area is normally described in local bulletins issued by the airport manager or control tower. These bulletins may be found in FSSs, fixed base operators offices, air carrier offices, and operations offices. 3. The control tower also issues bulletins describing areas where they cannot provide ATC service due to nonvisibility or other reasons. 4. A clearance must be obtained prior to taxiing on a runway, taking off, or landing during the hours an Airport Traffic Control Tower is in operation. 5. A clearance must be obtained prior to crossing any runway. ATC will issue an explicit clearance for all runway crossings. 6. When assigned a takeoff runway, ATC will first specify the runway, issue taxi instructions, and state any hold short instructions or runway crossing clearances if the taxi route will cross a runway. This does not authorize the aircraft to «enter» or «cross» the assigned departure runway at any point. In order to preclude misunderstandings in radio communications, ATC will not use the word «cleared» in conjunction with authorization for aircraft to taxi. 7. When issuing taxi instructions to any point other than an assigned takeoff runway, ATC will specify the point to taxi to, issue taxi instructions, and state any hold short instructions or runway crossing clearances if the taxi route will cross a runway. 8. If a pilot is expected to hold short of a runway approach/departure (Runway XX APPCH/Runway XX DEP) hold area or ILS holding position (see FIG 2−3-15, Taxiways Located in Runway Approach Area), ATC will issue instructions. 9. When taxi instructions are received from the controller, pilots should always read back: The runway assignment. Any clearance to enter a specific runway. Any instruction to hold short of a specific runway or line up and wait. 10. Controllers are required to request a readback of runway hold short assignment when it is not received from the pilot/vehicle.
