Recently, a study was conducted to determine the most dangerous airports in the United States- The top five are:
Chicago O’Hare – unsafe runway configurations
Cleveland Hopkins – runway too short for rain and snow landings
Los Angeles – several in-flight near misses during landing
San Francisco – crossing runway encroachments, fog and weather incidents
Honolulu – unsafe taxiways and poor runway lighting
What happened? Planners worked very hard on these airports but still incurred major problems-
