The federally mandated training will begin with daily and nightly live-fire training on Wednesday. It will culminate with the full-scale, emergency-response exercise on Saturday, the Syracuse Regional Airport Authority (SRAA) said Monday.
During the live-fire training Wednesday through Friday, travelers at and near the airport may notice fire, smoke, and an increased presence of emergency-response vehicles, SRAA said.
