The rubber-supported cables on the approach end require informing which groups?

• A. Civilian aircraft only
• B. Civil and U.S. Army aircraft
• C. All U.S. military aircraft
• D. Only U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aircraft

Answer: (B)

When there’s a physical hazard on the approach end of a runway, you inform all groups that could be affected so they can plan accordingly. The rubber-covered arresting cables crossing the approach end pose a legitimate risk to any aircraft on approach, and this field is used by both civilian aircraft and U.S. Army aircraft. Notifying both groups ensures pilots are aware of the hazard and can adjust or avoid the approach as needed. Civilian-only or Navy/Marine-focused notifications wouldn’t cover all affected traffic, and “all U.S. military aircraft” is too broad for the specific site usage.
