We can't wait for the next catastrophic event when we can see the warning signs today, Pete Buttigieg, Federal Aviation Administration Safety Summit, via NBC.

NBC reports that the FAA's safety summit comes following a number of recent runway mishaps and other near disasters that have shaken the aviation industry.

Jennifer Homendy, chair of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), also appeared at the summit.

Homendy reportedly cited six serious runway incidents that have occurred since January.

According to Homendy, the NTSB is also investigating two wrong-runway incidents dating back to last June, which occurred in Burbank, California, and Pittsburgh.

Homendy warned that the recent incidents serve as a "wake-up call" for the aviation industry.

Echoing Buttigieg's sentiments, Homendy lamented that actions are often only taken after a catastrophe has already occurred
