Special Temporary Authority application - Explanation
Please explain in the area below why an STA is necessary:
This regards a request by Broad Comm, Inc. (Broad Comm) for Special Temporary Authority (STA) to allow use of a number of frequencies to provide video and aural coverage to a number of television stations as well as ground support and logistics for a Red Bull Air Race World Series 2007 event. This is a major international event and this application includes setup and pre-event activities that will take place in San Diego, CA over the period from September 11 through September 22, 2007. The actual location for the event is the Embarcadaro Park ? Seaport Village area of San Diego where the planes are to take off and land on an US Navy Aircraft Carrier. This is a very large and potentially hazardous event for the pilots and the many thousands of attendees. Public Safety concerns are paramount at events of this magnitude, where coordination and communications have been issues in the past and the consequences have been tragic. Good Communications, both audio and video, is key to minimizing the risks to the public and the pilots. Wireless video cameras will continually monitor the speeding planes as they navigate the race course. The timing and risk is comparable to the Blue Angels, with the added uncertainty of a true air race. The significant majority of the channels being applied for have been used previously at air races of this kind.
