Radar Installation at Mesquite Airport

The seventh CASA radar was installed at Mesquite Airport on March 15, 2016. Once operational, coverage will extend to the eastern edge of the Metroplex. Installation at this site was made possible through a collaboration between the cities of Mesquite and Garland. Dallas County is now fully covered by CASA, with some areas falling under coverage from up to four overlapping radars.
