  3. Mike Russ, (Nazis, Aliens or UFO?) at Denver Airport - Oct 25,2007
    4. 25 Oct 2007 at 6:00pm
    Mike Russ will give insight on what is so unique about the Denver Airport. Are there 8 sub-basements, low- and high-frequency sounds that make people sick? What about the fenced lots with barbed wire along their tops pointing in? Are there whole buildings that were constructed below ground level and then buried as a government excuse because they were "built wrong?". How about workers who were terminated and “shut up?” Nazi’s, Aliens and UFOs?

Representatives attending the conference included airports, airlines, the Air Transport Association (ATA), passenger advocacy groups, the Dept. of Transportation, the Transportation Security Administration and Customs and Border Patrol./p pThe conference was a follow-up to a conference sponsored by Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in September, covered in the Oct. 1, 2007, a href="http://www.aviationweek.com/search/AvnowSearchResult.do?reference=xml/aviationd aily_xml/2007/10/01/29.xmlamp;query=Dallas%2FFort+Worth+International+Airport" target="_blank" mce_href="http://www.aviationweek.com/search/AvnowSearchResult.do?reference=xml/aviat iondaily_xml/2007/10/01/29.xmlamp;query=Dallas%2FFort+Worth+International+Airport"iss ue/a (subscribers only) of emAviation Daily/em.nbsp;

We invited a mix of regional and major hub airports, along with representatives from ATA and ACI-NA to get the broadest depth of understanding for our group,” said Jim Crites, DFW’s executive vice president of operations.nbsp; “The main issue we addressed then was providing clear and consistent communications with all the stakeholders involved.nbsp; We want the airports, the airlines, all on the same page when it comes to customer service issues.”/p pThere needs to be clear and consistent communication with all stakeholders involved in IROPS, said Crites.nbsp; quot;For example, airports and runways are clear and open for business.nbsp; Butnbsp; operations might still be disrupted, which upsets customers,quot; he said.nbsp; quot;We need to make sure that airlines, airports, TSA and Customs are all on same page with customers.quot;/p pOne area identified during the DFW conference was concessions when flights land or are canceled late at night, said Crites.nbsp; quot;People still need food and water.nbsp; We encouraged airports to work with their concessionaires to make arrangements to open when customers are in the terminal and need service,quot; he said.nbsp; /p pAnother issue was with flight monitoring, said Crites.nbsp; quot;Airports, airlines and FAA can work together to track flights so if someone sees something that could become an issue, we can work to keep ramps available and not strand passengers,quot; he said./p pquot;We hope to develop a tool box of best practices that can apply for different situations so that airports can develop a plan in advance of an IROPs,quot; said Crites.nbsp; nbsp;quot;ACI-NA and ATA embraced the idea of a D.C. conference to formalize and solidify broader outreach to all airports and airlines.nbsp; We want to share best practices and lessons learned from airports and airlines.quot;/p pThe conference yielded a long list of best practices and issues that need to be addressed, Richard Marchi, ACI-NA’s senior adviser for regulatory affairs.nbsp;
