Runway safety

The safety of the runway provides guidance to operators working in and around the control area to prevent runway accidents, especially runway intrusions and runway deviations.

The local runway safety team will provide collaboration among regulators, rule makers, airline service providers, airport operators, aircraft operators, aircraft manufacturers and professional associations.

The ICAO Secretariat strongly supported this work and encouraged all countries to fully implement the ICAO provision on runway safety. ICAO Document 9870 is a runway intrusion prevention manual.

The main deliverables are the European Action Plan to prevent invasion of the runway in Europe and the European Action Plan for Runway Safety developed by the European Runway Safety Working Group.

Implementation of measures included in the European Runway Intrusion Prevention Action Plan and the European Airways Runway Action Plan have promoted a coordinated approach in Europe and the world.

Recommendations and guidance materials included in each action plan heighten awareness of what the local runway safety team can do to improve the safety of the runway.

The action plan helps you determine the operational hazards by working in and around the pilot area.

The proposed recommendations provide mitigation according to ICAO regulations and best practices.

Carrying out these recommendations will help reduce the risk of runway safety events by reducing the number of accidents or reducing the severity of the accident.

Actively report ATM-related incidents and incidents, and provide clear images of the safe state of the runway to improve awareness of runway intrusion and runway deviation

The European action plan to prevent invasion into the runway includes a series of important practical recommendations, including guidance materials to support the implementation of business personnel. Operational experts organized the European Runway Safety Working Group and provided the contents of this work.

The safety of the runway includes reducing damage that may occur in the runway. Safety means avoiding the use of incorrect runways due to inappropriate presence (intrusion) of the aircraft, improper exit (deviation), and confusion. Because of weather conditions and aviation safety, the state of the runway is the current state of the runway. Invasion into the runway involves an aircraft, a second aircraft, a vehicle or people. It is defined by ICAO and the US Federal Aviation Administration as "every incident at the airport, including the presence of aircraft, vehicles or people on protected areas designated for landing and takeoff."

The US Federal Aviation Administration publishes an annual report on runway safety issues on FAA's website. A new system designed to improve the safety of the runway like the Airport Sports Area Security System (AMASS) and Runway Consciousness Advisory System (RAAS) is described in the report. When the runway of San Francisco International Airport was invaded in 2007, AMASS hardly prevented conflict.

Reducing the safety risk of the runway is a top priority for the FAA and one way the organization is studying this problem is designed to improve awareness of the crew and the driver of the airport It is the development of the runway condition light (RWSL) technology. . As an additional layer of security. RWSL currently operates in 11 major US airports, including Los Angeles International Airport, Washington Dulles Airport, George Bush Intercontinental Airport (Houston Airport), Orlando International Airport. The Federal Aviation Administration of the United States has received nine airports from the Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Dallas / Fort Worth International Airport, and JFK International Airport in New York at the various stages of local acceptance testing, construction or implementation, and until the end of the year We should arrive at.

At the end of runway 11 there is a paved overrun section forming a clear area outside the runway (runway safety area or RSA). At the end, there is a flat grassland leading to the link fence, representing the airport's surroundings. On the other side of the fence there is a valley including the Shawsheen River. The operator is SK Travel. They only flew only one aircraft and they hired three people: two pilots and cabin crew. One of the pilots was also the main pilot of SK Travel and supervisor of maintenance. The contract pilot was used when one of the two pilots did not use it. This has recently occurred in May 2013, one year before the accident.
