Tips for runway safety

By General Aviation News Staff · June 19, 2021 ·

On June 16, 2021, the FAA hosted a virtual Runway Safety Town Hall for all GA pilots. It featured several runway safety best practices and a candid discussion among GA pilots, air traffic controllers, and runway safety experts.

The focus of the Town Hall was to help pilots reduce the risk of airfield errors and lower the potential for accidents, according to FAA officials.

Discussion topics included preflight preparation, situational awareness, communications, knowledge of runway geometry and signage, and how to prepare for operating at a major fly-in event like AirVenture.

A recording of the livestreamed event is available on YouTube.
