Use your eyes and ears to keep our airports safe

Here's what to look for:

  • Pilots who appear under the control of someone else.
  • Anyone trying to access an aircraft through force — without keys, using a crowbar or screwdriver.
  • Anyone who seems unfamiliar with aviation procedures trying to check out an airplane.
  • Anyone who misuses aviation lingo — or seems too eager to use all the lingo
  • People or groups who seem determined to keep to themselves.
  • Any members of your airport neighborhood who work to avoid contact with you or other airport tenants.
  • Anyone who appears to be just loitering, with no specific reason for being there.
  • Any out-of-the-ordinary videotaping of aircraft or hangars.
  • Aircraft with unusual or obviously unauthorized modifications.
  • Dangerous cargo or loads — explosives, chemicals, openly displayed weapons — being loaded into an airplane.
  • Anything that strikes you as wrong — listen to your gut instinct, and then follow through.
  • Pay special attention to height, weight, and the individual's clothing or other identifiable traits.

Use your common sense.
