Pri Fly has primary control of land/launch frequencies and secondary control of aircraft guard and final approach frequencies.

Pri-Fly serves as the central point for flight-deck communications, coordinating the takeoff and landing operations so the deck can move safely and on schedule. Because those land/launch frequencies directly drive when and how aircraft depart and recover on the ship, Pri-Fly has primary control over them. The aircraft guard channel and the final-approach frequency are safety- and traffic-management channels that the carrier’s air traffic control system handles as the primary, with Pri-Fly monitoring them as a backup to ensure continuous safety and smooth handling if the primary controller is busy or needs assistance. So this arrangement, with Pri-Fly primary on land/launch and secondary on guard and final approach, reflects how responsibilities are distributed to maintain safe flight operations on the carrier.
