NLV Holds Another Airport Meeting

Meeting Will Be To Give Solutions For Plane, Resident Safety

There will be another meeting Thursday night to discuss possible changes at the North Las Vegas airport following two fatal crashes.

About 50 people showed up Wednesday night -- a mix of pilots and annoyed neighbors.

One of the suggestions included warning signs on streets to alert drivers and pedestrians.

Another suggestion was fines for pilots who fly too low.

One woman claimed a pilot flew a little too close.

"You could actually see the pilot's face. That's how close he came to our house," said Marilyn Cibulka of North Las Vegas.

"If you could see the numbers, you have the best vision I've ever heard of, because the numbers are this high," said pilot Ed Smith, as he motioned that the numbers on the plane are small.

Pilots who were at the meeting said they fly safely.

Part of the complaint of the Clark County Aviation Association is that the county let too many homes be built near airport safety zones.

The Clark County Aviation Association will conduct Thursday night's meeting.
