    CFASPP Continuing Florida Aviation System Planning Process ________________________________________________________________________________________________ SOUTHEAST FLORIDA METROPOLITAN AREA CHRIS MCARTHUR, CHAIR September 14, 2010 Dear Committee Members, Advisors, and Participants, Subject: SOUTHEAST FLORIDA METROPOLITAN AREA CFASPP Committee Meeting Date/Time: Tuesday, September 28, 2010 at 10:00 AM. Location: Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport, Administration Conference Room It’s hard to believe that we are once again nearing the end of another year in Florida aviation. Participants that attended our last Statewide meeting in Tampa were treated to an enlightening presentation that highlighted the significant infrastructure improvements that will be required to support aviation growth in Florida over the next fifty years. Unfortunately airport sponsors will likely find it difficult to meet these demands as revenue streams and capital budgets continue to fall. I hope that you will make time to attend and participate in the discussions at our next regional meeting as we cover several important topics affecting aviation in Florida. Our next meeting will be held on September 28, 2010 in the Administration Conference Room at Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport beginning at 10:00 AM. CFASPP Round 2010-3 will conclude with a Statewide Committee meeting on November 10th at Tampa International Airport. As always, if you have an item that you would like added to the agenda for discussion by the regional committee, please let me know prior to our scheduled meeting date. If you should have any questions or concerns prior to the meeting, please feel free to let me know or you may contact Dan Afghani, CFASPP Administrator via e-mail at [email protected].

  • CARES ACT FUNDING by Michael Mcdougall, Aviation Communications Manager
    News from the Florida Department of Transportation Aviation Office www.fdot.gov/aviation SPRING 2020 CARES ACT FUNDING by Michael McDougall, Aviation Communications Manager n March 27, 2020, President Trump signed a $2.2 trillion stimulus bill into law called the Coronavirus Aide, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act), of which $10 billion in grants was allocated to provide relief to eligible airports in the U.S. that have been impacted during the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously, the Federal Aviation O Administration (FAA) would fund a large percentage of AIP eligible projects and there would be a local match contributed by the Airport’s sponsor. As a result of the CARES Act, temporary changes have been made to the Airport Improvement Program (AIP). $500 million of the $10 billion is now available to increase the federal share of certain projects up to 100 percent. The other $9.5 billion will be made available to airports to cover expenses such as operational costs, payroll, debt services, aiding in protection, prevention, and future preparations to combat complications from the pandemic. For projects identified to receive 100 percent federal funding, there will be no local contribution. All airports that are in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) were eligible for funding, as determined by an airport’s classification of either commercial service or general aviation. Commercial Service airports (those with 10,000 or more annual passenger boardings) were eligible to receive up to $7.4 billion of CARES Act funding, based on their total annual enplanements. This is similar to how Commercial Service airports receive the AIP entitlement funds.

  • National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Preliminary Report
    National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Preliminary Report Location: Lakeland, FL Accident Number: ERA21LA201 Date & Time: May 1, 2021, 14:28 Local Registration: N125WC Aircraft: Beech A36 Injuries: 1 Fatal, 1 Serious Flight Conducted Part 91: General aviation - Personal Under: On May 1, 2021, about 1428 eastern daylight time, a Beech A36, N125WC, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Lakeland, Florida. The private pilot was seriously injured, and the pilot- rated passenger was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. According to Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data, earlier on the day of the accident the airplane flew to several airports before arriving at Bartow Executive Airport (BOW), Bartow, Florida. The accident flight departed BOW about 1420 and proceeded toward Lakeland Linder International Airport (LAL), Lakeland, Florida. According to recorded air traffic control communications with the LAL air traffic control tower, the flight was instructed by the local controller to join the right downwind leg of the airport traffic pattern for runway 9 at or above 1,500 ft mean sea level (msl). The local controller observed the airplane descending to 800 ft msl and informed the pilot that the flight needed to be at or above 1,500 ft msl, and to turn southbound. An occupant of the airplane advised the controller of an engine failure. The airplane was cleared to land on runway 5, and subsequently cleared to land on runway 27, after a transport category airplane that was on approach to runway 9 was instructed to go-around; however, the pilot or passenger advised that the airplane could not reach the runway.
