Ft. Lauderdale Executive (FXE) airport is a busy, medium sized, primarily business and general aviation airport. Located 7 miles north of Ft. Lauderdale/Hollywood International airport, it is a convenient alternative to the larger more congested International airport. Pilots need also be aware that it is located just 4 miles southwest of the Pompano Beach airport and the two are often confused. The airport has two intersecting runways and a complex system of taxiways. Not only does it serve as a reliever to the larger airport nearby, but it also serves as a jumping off point for general aviation aircraft heading for the Bahamas. This video prepares pilots for hot spots and common issues at FXE.

FAA's From the Flight Deck video series uses cockpit 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 ].
