Meteorological factors have a profound impact on aircraft operation and safety. Weather-related incidents accounted for 8% of all accident reports, according to data from the U.S. Federal Transportation Safety Commission’s 2009–2018 U.S. aviation accident/quasi-accident survey. The tendency of lightning strikes in domestic airports and surrounding areas is increasing year by year, but unlike major overseas airports, there is no official lightning warning system other than the radio wave system in case of lightning strikes from the Korea Meteorological Administration. Since each operator issues its own alerts based on the Significant Meteorological Information report, small agencies such as low-cost airlines have limited capabilities to mitigate lightning damage. This study aims to support the safety and smooth air traffic control of ground operators and aircraft through the introduction of lightning warning systems and equipment in Korea to protect ground workers and aircraft safety.
