  2. Where Are You?

  3. Where Are You?

  4. ME!Use anairportdiagram…Give me a break… I know this airport…every crack… been here for 20 years

  5. Double Shifts = Fatigue Hey Bud… Can you cover for me this Friday?…want to take my kid to the game…I’ll cover for you next week

  6. Gotta HurryThe boss told me I have to have this plane buttoned up and over to the other side of the field

  8. Types of Deviations

  9. Pilot Deviations Actions that violate a Federal Air Regulation

  10. Operational Errors Occurrences that result in: 1)less than applicable separation, or 2) authorization for aircraft to land or depart closed runway

  11. Vehicle or Pedestrian Deviations Occur when a vehicle operator, pedestrian, non-pilot operator or aircraft enters a movement area without ATC authorization.

  12. Line-Oriented Safety Audit • 23% of errors • 38% of threats Occur before leaving the ground

  13. March 2003 - Taiwan. A TransAsia Airbus landed on Runway 36 at Taiwan Airport and hit a maintenance vehicle on the runway. There were no injuries to the passengers and crew. The flight was late and AT cleared the aircraft to land on the runway shortly after it was closed for maintenance activity.

  14. The maintenance vehicle was traveling in the direction of landing traffic and the two occupants in the vehicle failed to see the landing airliner.

  15. Two other vehicles were also on the runway traveling towards the landing traffic and veered to avoid a collision with the aircraft.

  16. The two people in the maintenance vehicle were only slightly injured.

  17. Best Practice: TIMELY AND ACCURATE NOTAMS

  18. Israir 102 B767 Entered RWY. ABX 50 DC85 Over flew Israir 102 by less than 100 feet.

  19. EJA 377 C550 At taxi speed. N525VV C525 Entered RWY 2,000 feet horizontal MIA

  20. USA 1170 is 171 feet from intersection as EIN 132 is just through intersection climbing. USA 1170 B737 EIN 132 A333 Airborne

  21. SO WHAT WENT WRONG?

  22. A Few Common Mistakes • No clearance obtained to push-back • No contact made with ATC when repositioning • Wrongfully accept an ATC clearance as your own • Misinterpret an ATC clearance • Don’t want to look “stupid” by contacting ATC again • Wrong ATC instruction given • Unfamiliar with airfield layout • In a big rush to stay on schedule (everyone)

  23. Conditions at Time of Runway Incursions Airport Diagram Not Used Unfamiliar with Airport Signage Not Familiar with Airport Failed to Follow Instructions Inexperienced at Towered Airports (Phraseology) Unfavorable Environmental Conditions Clearance Not Read back HUMAN ERROR

  24. Human Factors • Fatigue (double shifts) • Employee turnover • Stress (job related - home related) • Distractions in Cockpit- down head time, attention to squawked items • NO CELL PHONES • Complacency • Language
