The Flight Information Service Officer (FISO) is a key figure in the aviation world.
Their main task is to provide pilots with all the necessary information to operate safely within uncontrolled airspace and at airports where a traditional control tower is not present.
The FISO officer ensures that pilots receive accurate updates on:
- weather conditions;
- runway status and ongoing airport activities;
- presence of other aircraft in the area;
- potential obstacles or navigation hazards.
Thanks to this crucial role, the FISO contributes significantly to the safety and efficiency of flight operations, especially at smaller or low-traffic airports.
