Pompano Beach Airpark (PMP) is a small to medium-sized, general and corporate aviation airport. It is located in the city of Pompano Beach along Florida’s east coast. The Fort Lauderdale Executive (FXE) airport is just four and a half miles southeast, and the Boca Raton (BCT) airport is eight miles north. It has irregularly shaped Class Delta airspace due to its proximity to FXE and BCT.

1: 09 - There are three runways: 6-24, 10-28, and 15-33 that all intersect. Note the proximity of the approach ends of Runways 6 and 10 and Runways 28 and 33. These runway ends have been confused and pilots have attempted to land on the wrong runway.

1:57 - The traffic mix at PMP.

2:27 - Hot spot #1 is found at the intersection of taxiways Lima, Kilo, and Mike. Aircraft taxiing for departure on Runway 6 via Kilo-Mike or via Lima-Mike have missed the turn on Mike and taxied onto Runway 6-24 without authorization.

3:08 - Hot spot #2 is located at the other end of taxiways Kilo and Lima and includes taxiway Golf. It is another potentially confusing intersection where pilots have been cleared to take off on either Runway 28 or 33, and then proceeded out onto the other runway and attempted to depart.

3:44 - Also be aware of issues with aircraft landing Runway 15 and turning off at Runway 6-24 without ATC authorization. Remember, you must have a clearance to operate on any runway, active or not.

4:08 - When ready to depart PMP from any of the parking areas, please note that there are “spot” markings located on the primary taxi lanes just prior to entering the movement area. Pilots are requested to call ground when they are number one and with the spot number.

The FAA's From the Flight Deck video series uses aircraft-mounted cameras to capture runway and taxiway footage and combines them with diagrams and visual graphics to clearly identify hot spots and other safety-sensitive items. Learn more at [ Ссылка ].
