Contents of presentation • Aerodrome Triangle Model • The philosophy behind ICAO Annex 14 requirements • Different responsibilities • Some thoughts about “engineering driven Christmas trees” • Creative solutions for problem areas • Summary Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Safety is everybody's responsibility Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Aerodrome triangle Aerodrome operator Air Traffic Controller Pilot Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
ICAO Annex 14 requirements (1) Road Runway Taxiway penetration Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
ICAO Annex 14 requirements (2) • RWY markings • TWY markings • TWY: - Taxi holding position markings - Signs - Stop bars - RWY guard lights • Road: - Holding position markings - Signs - Lights Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Responsibilities of the aerodrome operator • To comply with ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) • To have competent operational and maintenance personnel • To execute proper maintenance • To instruct vehicle drivers • To have a Safety Management System (SMS) • To ensure that ATC receives all relevant information about the status of systems Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Responsibilities of the Air Traffic Controller • To operate the SMGCS to provide for the safety and expedition of the movements of aircraft and vehicles on the movement areas • To give clear and concise instructions to pilots and vehicle drivers • To not use abbreviations • To use the English language when required • To use the aerodrome systems as designed • Not give themessage: “Please ignore the red” when stop bars are switched on Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Responsibilities of the pilot • The pilot-in-command is ultimately responsible for safety of the aircraft • To follow the instructions from ATC • To use the aerodrome systems as designed • To have knowledge of the meaning of these aerodrome systems • To have adequate training • To never cross a red stop bar Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
“Engineering Christmas Trees” • To resolve the RWY incursion issue, often engineering driven solutions are proposed • Step zero is often forgotten: i.e. the basis: implementation of the ICAO Annex 14 requirements • Without step zero the system/triangle can never be in balance • Try to resolve the issues by being creative, but stay within the ICAO framework Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Example of a creative solutionMandatory Instruction Sign with a Location Sign B 06-24 Sign according to ICAO Annex 14 Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Example of an incorrect solution Mandatory Instruction Sign RWY ahead Sign not according to ICAO provisions Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
Summary • The triangle must be in balance • The consideration of responsibilities within the operation of (A)SMGCS is a major factor in the prevention of runway incursions • The requirements of ICAO Annex 14 designed to prevent runway incursions must be implemented as the first step • The second step of improvement can be found in looking to the issue of human factors and fall-back systems Aerodrome Safety Workshop - Almaty, Kazakhstan - 18 to 22 November2002
