Waco Regional Airport Hosts Successful Emergency Exercise
Created on April 15, 2026 at 02:00 PM
Waco Regional Airport successfully completed a full-scale emergency exercise involving a simulated aircraft crash.
This essential training gave airport staff, mutual aid partners, and emergency responders the opportunity to strengthen their coordination in a controlled environment. This exercise is critical to maintaining our commercial operating certificate and meets the Federal Aviation Administration's requirement to evaluate emergency readiness every three years.
