From the Flight Deck Videos
FAA's From the Flight Deck video series provides pilots with actual runway approach and airport taxiway footage captured with aircraft-mounted cameras, combined with diagrams and visual graphics to clearly identify hot spots and other safety-sensitive items at airports. Additional videos are available on general aviation safety challenges including Phraseology, Wrong Surface Landings, Human Factors and complex airfield geometry pilots may encounter. Subscribe to the FAA's YouTube channel to be notified when new videos are published.
Arrival Alert Notices
Arrival Alert Notices were developed to address wrong surface events at airports with a history of misalignment risk where an aircraft lines up to or lands on the incorrect runway, taxiway, or airport. Arrival Alert Notices are graphics visually depicting the approach to a particular airport and language describing the misalignment risk to help increase awareness of potential risks.
Pilot Handbooks
Pilot Handbooks include details such as airport-specific cautions, information local controllers want pilots to know, airport communications, airspace details and other preflight planning resources. The information from local controllers is particularly unique and allows controllers to directly communicate information they want pilots to know when operating at their facility. Pilot Handbooks are currently available for over 80 airports nationwide, with more in development.
