  1. Limitations of Human Performance Capt. Paul McCarthy IFALPA Representative to ICAO

  2. Solutions Proposed • Training • Standardization • Crew Resource management • Professionalism • Situational Awareness

  3. Additional Considerations • Incursions are either • Situational confusion (don’t know where you are) • Or • Clearance confusion (think that you are supposed to be where you are) • Controller/pilot human factors always an issue

  4. Solution • Landing without lowering the landing gear. • An example of Human Factors that required a technology solution • Training is not the entire answer • Technology may be able to do for incursions what TCAS has done for mid air collisions

  5. Additional Considerations • Excursions are not so straight forward • unstabilized approaches • Poor runway condition • Mechanical failure • Unanticipated wind effects • Lack of vertical guidance • Just to name a few causal factors

  6. Solution • Again, training is not the entire answer. • Go Arounds are not always a solution • Excursions will probably always be a fact of life, if not off the end then off the side of the runway • If the hull is intact the people usually survive an excursion

  7. Solution • We must accept that excursions will happen • We must delethalize the area surrounding the runway • If there is insufficient real estate, alternative solutions MUST be used • Really the only answer
