Prescott Regional Airport-Ernest A Love Field (PRC) is a medium sized, multi-use airport located 7 miles northeast of the city of Prescott, Arizona. Prescott is a commercial service airport and is one of the nation’s top 50-busiest airports due to intensive fixed wing and helicopter flight training. In addition, the airport supports recreational general aviation, corporate aviation, air cargo, military and U.S. Forest Service fixed wing and helicopter firefighting operations. This mix of pilot experience levels and aircraft capabilities make Prescott a challenge for controllers and pilots alike. This video prepares pilots for hot spots, challenges and runway configuration details at PRC.
The FAA's From the Flight Deck video series uses aircraft-mounted cameras to capture runway and taxiway footage and combines them with diagrams and visual graphics to clearly identify hot spots and other safety-sensitive items. Learn more at [ Ссылка ]
