the extended assault strip centerline.
Airfield Accident Potential Zones
Per Air Force regulations, Accident Potential Zones (APZs) are developed to
assist military and community planners in developing land uses that are
compatible with airfield operations, thereby protecting health and safety.
Within these zones, there are recommended types, densities, and intensities
of land uses. While the likelihood of an aircraft mishap occurring is remote,
the identified APZs provide the best practical solution for fostering public
safety.
The APZ‐ LZ for the landing zone begins at the far end of the CZ and extends
out for 250 feet on each side of the centerline for 2,500 feet along the
extended landing zone centerline.
