Key Takeaways:

When one thinks of GA airports, innovative is not the first word that comes to mind. Most do a good job of maintaining their runways and infrastructure, which serves pilots well, but that doesn’t make them trailblazers.

California’s Truckee Tahoe Airport (KTRK), however, has introduced some valuable initiatives around pilot safety that hopefully other airports will take notice of and incorporate.
