|
|
Airport staff are currently in the process of designing reconstruction of the primary crosswind runway at Buchanan Field.

Airport Protocols Regarding Aircraft Incidents and May 26th Aircraft Accident Near Buchanan Field (Review and Discuss)
|
|
Pictures of the incident were shown and discussed. Details of the events were described; the aircraft was coming in to land but had engine trouble and had to land on the street. The pilot did what pilots are trained to do – look for open space to land. The Airport Committee developed an information dissemination process as follows:
-
Personal call to Supervisor offices and state where the incident occurred
-
Compile more detail and distribute to all Supervisors through the County’s public information alert process which is coordinated by the County’s Public Information Officer
The goal is to provide advance notice in the event of a media inquiry.
