ASAG's own from the flight deck videos

The FAA's  From the Flight Deck Video series covers Towered Airports throughout the country.  ASAG is working on presenting non-towered and airspace issues we feel are important for all pilots.  Know before you go.  Marana and Sedona are our first in a series with Cottonwood coming soon.

ASAG's own from the flight deck videos

Sedona is Arizona's number two tourist destination and the scenic beauty draws many unsuspecting pilots to an airport that has many safety challenges.  Know before you go.

Non-towered airports: In control or out of control?

FAA Safety Team Representatives Dr. Brian Stamper, Lee Unger, and Dr. Sarah Nilsson have put together this great video after a near mid-air event at Marana that was almost tragic.  

STOP LASER STRIKES AND UAS NEAR MISSES

Cory.Geffre@phoenix.gov

Officers Tim Clark and Cory Geffre from the PHX Air Support Unit,  asks anyone experiencing a LASER illumination or a UAS near-miss event anywhere within the state to email him with the details.  Don't forget to notify ATC immediately of your encounter.   You can also report the incident to the FAA by clicking on the Find Out More button to the right.
