The airspace south of the Phoenix Metro region is a very congested and heavily used area from F-35s and F-16s in the western side to airline ops on the eastern side, with jump activity, helicopter ops, and training flights in between.  In this this 1-1/2 hour seminar FAA Safety Team Lead Representative and Arizona Aviation Safety Advisory Group President, Cary Grant, will discuss the area's "Hot Spots", users, and best practices pilots should be aware of when flying though or using this area for training activities.
