Reinforce compliance & slot optimization for landing permits at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (IATA: AUS, ICAO: KAUS) with Just Aviation

Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 91 governs general operating and flight rules for all aircraft in the United States, including those landing at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS). Key provisions include FAR 91.103, which requires pilots to be familiar with preflight information such as runway lengths and takeoff and landing distances, and FAR 91.129, which mandates two-way radio communication with the control tower before entering Class D airspace, including AUS. Additionally, AUS must comply with FAR Part 139, which outlines airport certification requirements, safety, and maintenance for commercial service. FAA Advisory Circulars provide further guidance, including AC 150/5300-13A on airport design and AC 150/5370-2G on operational safety during construction. To obtain a landing permit at AUS, operators must submit essential documents, including aircraft registration, an airworthiness certificate, liability insurance, pilot credentials, a detailed flight plan, and noise compliance documentation. For international flights, customs and border protection documentation is also required. AUS enforces noise abatement procedures to minimize aircraft noise impact on surrounding communities, and during peak periods, slot coordination may be necessary to manage airport capacity. Pilots should ensure they meet all requirements and obtain necessary approvals in advance.
