The NTSB is recommending that all pilots be required to communicate their positions on a designated radio frequency when entering and exiting areas not controlled by air traffic control towers throughout Alaska:
Wreckage from a fatal midair collision lies in the woods on Friday, July 31, 2020 near the Sterling Highway and Mayoni Street in Soldotna.
In the 2020 crash, the two planes collided just over 2 miles from the Soldotna Airport, which does not have an air traffic control tower. Aircraft in the area are supposed to monitor traffic on a set frequency. “Sometimes the completion of an accident investigation may be delayed for any number of reasons. In such cases, the NTSB sometimes decides to push ahead with the recommendations when all of the factual information is collected and the analytical work is completed, which was the case here,” Knudson said.
