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 www.faa.gov/FromTheFlightDeck

To address wrong surface events where an aircraft lines up to or lands on the incorrect runway, taxiway, or airport, the FAA released Arrival Alert Notices (AAN) at various airports with a history of misalignment risk.

Airport in this video: Boise, ID (BOI)

Video Contents:

0:48 - Airport Layout/Diagram Description

1:00 - Military Assault Strip - Pilots need to be aware of a military assault strip located approximately 1 mile SSE of the airport.

1:26 - Parallel Runways - Like other airports with parallel runways with staggered thresholds, pilots must be cautious to ensure they are landing on the correct runway.

2:02 - Hot Spot 1 - Taxiway J and W intersect near the approach end of runway 10L. Pilots occasionally miss the turn for taxiway W and cross the runway 10L approach hold.

2:50 - Approach Holds - Similar to Hot Spot 1, there are other areas in which approach holds can present a problem if pilots are unfamiliar with their location on the field.

3:42 - Taxilane K - Aircraft on the south side of the airport taxiing to runways 10L or 10R via taxiways B, F, J, have mistaken taxilane K for taxiway, and turned too soon. Taxilane K is a non-movement area.

    I have not yet flown into KBOI but most certainly will at some point and time. These videos are very helpful to me being that I am very visual. Thank you for providing

    I’ve flown into KBOI several times but have always parked at the GA ramp on the southwest side and departed 10R or 28L. I can see how a clearance to cross 10R for 10L with a holding instruction at the approach hold line for 10L could get confusing. Appreciate these videos.

    Great and succinct info - Thanks! Maybe you guys could work with Foreflight/Garmin to include links to these videos in their apps for those planning flights to these airports.
