Airfield Marking Practicum

By Mike Speidel

    Sightline and AAAE are pleased to bring you the first airport markings workshop! The dates to block off on the calendar are November 9-11, 2008 in Reno, NV. This training targets everyone involved with the design, specification, application and maintenance, supervising, and/or inspecting of airfield markings. Named the "AAAE Airfield Marking Practicum", it will be a full day and a half of training. A portion of the workshop will include demonstrations performed at Reno-Tahoe International Airport by their staff. Incidentally, we're observing them because they have been trained by Sightline.

    What can I expect from the training? Each participant will receive a Sightline training manual to be used in conjunction with the course. The course is dedicated to improving the effectiveness, efficiency, and economy of pavement markings for airfields. Attention will be paid to the details. Designed to teach the specifics of this particular aspect of airport visual guidance systems, this course has a high practical content. Participants will be trained to recognize deficiencies and gain proficiency in the application and maintenance of airfield markings.

    Where can I find more information? The conference will be held in Reno, NV, from November 9-11, 2008. All general information regarding this workshop may be found by clicking here.

    How do I register? The conference agenda/registration can be viewed and printed by clicking here.

    Will I be happy I attended? The amount of money potentially saved from training is staggering. Teach a man to fish... we'll see you in Reno!
