What action is required if an approach to a different runway is issued while FDIO is operational?

When an approach to a different runway is issued while the Flight Data Input/Output (FDIO) is operational, verifying changes with Ground Operations Tower (GWO TWR) is essential. This action ensures that all necessary updates are aligned with the latest airport operations and protocols. GWO TWR has access to comprehensive information about runway usage, traffic flow, and any operational constraints that may affect the change in approach.

By confirming the changes with GWO TWR, you can guarantee that the information you've received is accurate and that any necessary amendments to aircraft clearances or instructions are properly communicated. This step is crucial for maintaining safety and efficiency in air traffic control, as it minimizes the risk of miscommunication that could arise from acting on incomplete or incorrect information.

Effective communication and coordination between controllers help ensure that pilots are directed to the correct approach safely and that they are aware of any operational changes impacting their flight.
