  1. Standardization vs. Harmonization Capt. Paul Mccarthy IFALPA Representative to ICAO

  2. Before we Begin • Runway Safety is really two very different issues • Excursion • Incursion • The only thing in common is the word runway. • Don’t try to harmonize the solutions

  3. Standardization • Pilots are by nature creatures of standardization- “plan the flight and fly the plan” • Standardization is achieved by system design and repetitive training • Exceptions to standardization can and will induce human error

  4. Harmonization • “Adjustment of differences and inconsistencies among different…systems to make them uniform or mutually compatible” • Business dictionary.com • Problems may well be local but solutions cannot be

  5. Harmonization • A unique problem for an aerodrome or ANSP must be dealt with in a manner consistent with the standardized training of the crew • Local solutions that are not harmonized will compound the difficulty for the crew.

  6. Solution • Include active pilots in any local runway safety effort. • They can help to craft a solution to a local problem that will be harmonized with the SOPs and expectations of transient crews
