    U.S. Air Force Senior Airman Gabriel Droit, 92nd Operations Support Squadron air traffic control trainer, informs local leaders about the impact windmills have on air traffic and safety during their visit at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington Aug. 22, 2025. This brief addressed the potential impact of wind turbines in the vicinity of a flightline and air traffic control tower due to their potential to interfere with radar systems, navigational aids and visual line-of-sight, thereby posing significant safety risks to air traffic operations.
