Details from the source

FAA map region: Map - Main FAA arresting-system data lists EMAS at multiple ends of runway 5/23 (05, 23); exact end not recorded. [2026-07-26] 2016 Fact Sheet listar detta under 'additional projects currently under contract' ('Boca Raton, Boca Raton, FL, 1, 2016') - bara en forvantan, inte en bekraftad fardigstallning. Var egen tidigare research hade redan 'efter 2012' (Hog konfidens, matchar sept 2025-incidenten) men utan specifikt ar - detta ar den mest specifika dateringen som finns, men fortfarande en projektion, inte en oberoende bekraftad fardigstallning. Ingen ny post har skapats för detta. Kalla: https://www.faa.gov/news/fact_sheets/news_story.cfm?newsId=13754
