Flagstaff Pulliam Airport (FLG) will conduct a full-scale exercise simulating an aircraft crash resulting in a mass casualty incident on Monday, Sept. 9, 2024. This exercise, named “Operation Ready FLG,” is being carried out in compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations.

The primary goal of the exercise is to test and enhance the airport’s emergency response capabilities in the event of a mass casualty incident. More than 25 local, state, and federal agencies will participate in the exercise to improve interoperability and coordination.

Community members interested in volunteering to participate can register online at uwna.volunteerhub.com/vv2/lp/OperationFLG/. Pre-registration is required. For questions about volunteering, please email steven.thompson@flagstaffaz.gov.
