This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congestion on airport runways is a major safety concern. The nation¿s aviation system is expected to grow and become more crowded in the coming years, exacerbating concerns about ground safety issues, including runway incursions, which occur when aircraft enter runways without authorization. This statement addresses: (1) recent trends in runway incursions; (2) steps taken to improve runway safety; and (3) what more could be done. Work on this report included surveying experts on the causes of runway incidents and accidents and the effectiveness of measures to address them, reviewing safety data, and interviewing agency and industry officials. Includes info. on recent incursions and actions taken since Nov. 2007. Charts and tables.

This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the Federal Aviation Admin. (FAA) operates one of the world's safest aviation systems, runway safety remains a significant concern -- especially since runway incursions increased by 30% from FY 2011 to FY 2013 despite slight declines in air traffic operations during that time. FAA has made runway safety a key oversight priority and uses Airport Surface Detection Equipment-Model X (ASDE-X) to allow air traffic controllers to detect potential runway conflicts. FAA plans to integrate two runway safety systems with ASDE-X to give pilots a visible warning when runways are occupied by other aircraft and to provide simultaneous alerts for controllers and pilots of potential runway incursions and ground collisions. This report assessed FAA's efforts to implement and integrate surface surveillance technologies. Figures and tables. This is a print on demand report.

This book was released on 2017-09-09 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a recent reduction in air traffic due to economic factors, congestion on airport runways remains a safety concern. The nation's aviation system is still expected to grow and become more crowded in the coming years, exacerbating concerns about ground safety issues, including runway incursions, which occur when aircraft enter runways without authorization. This statement addresses (1) recent trends in runway incursions, (2) steps taken to improve runway safety, and (3) what more could be done. This statement is based on GAO's November 2007 report issued to this Subcommittee on runway safety. GAO's work on that report included surveying experts on the causes of runway incidents and accidents and the effectiveness of measures to address them, reviewing safety data, and interviewing agency and industry officials. This statement also contains information from FAA on recent incursions and actions taken since November 2007. In prior work, GAO recommended that FAA take several measures to enhance runway safety, such as updating its national runway safety

Download or read book CAA Significant Seven Task Force Reports written by Civil Aviation Authority and published by . This book was released on 2011-03-25 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The CAA task force initiative was launched in June 2009 as an action from the 2009 Safety Conference to address the seven top safety risks identified by the CAA safety risk analysis process. This process is described in the CAA 2009/11 Safety Plan (CAP 786, ISBN 9780117922464) and essentially combines analysis of worldwide fatal accidents carried out by the CAA Accident Analysis Group (AAG) with more detailed analysis of high-severity occurrences to UK aircraft carried out by The High Risk Events Analysis Team (THREAT). Five new task forces were created: Airborne and Post-Crash Fire, Airborne Conflict, Runway Overrun or Excursion, Loss of Control and Controlled Flight into Terrain (CFIT). Existing working groups addressed the remaining two safety issues: the Runway Incursions Steering Group (RISG) covered Runway Incursion and Ground Collision, and the Ground Handling Operations Safety Team (GHOST) covered Ramp Incidents. Significant work was already underway or complete for several of the task force subjects. The task forces were explicitly asked not to duplicate work but to identify where any additional safety intervention was required and to endorse, where appropriate, the continuation of existing work streams. A keyfeature of all task forces was the inclusion and active participation of the aviation industry. This paper consolidates the findings and recommendations of the task forces into one document.

Book excerpt: While aviation accidents in the United States are relatively infrequent, recent incidents have heightened concerns about safety on airport runways. As the nation's aviation system becomes more crowded every day, increased congestion at airports may exacerbate ground safety concerns. This statement discusses the trends in runway incursions, what FAA has done to improve runway safety, and what more could be done. Information is based on the Government Accountability Office's (GAO) November 2007 report issued to this committee on runway safety. This statement also contains information from FAA on recent incursions and actions taken since November 2007.--Highlights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling and Managing Airport Performance provides an integrated view of state-of-the-art research on measuring and improving the performance of airport systems with consideration of both airside and landside operations. The considered facets of performance include capacity, delays, economic costs, noise, emissions and safety. Several of the contributions also examine policies for managing congestion and allocating sparse capacity, as well as for mitigating the externalities of noise, emissions, and safety/risk. Key features: Provides a global perspective with contributing authors from Europe, North and South America with backgrounds in academia, research institutions, government, and industry Contributes to the definition, interpretation, and shared understanding of airport performance measures and related concepts Considers a broad range of measures that quantify operational and environmental performance, as well as safety and risk Discusses concepts and strategies for dealing with the management of airport performance Presents state-of-the-art modelling capabilities and identifies future modelling needs Themed around 3 sections – Modelling Airport Performance, Assessing Airport Impacts, and Managing Airport Performance and Congestion Modelling and Managing Airport Performance is a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners in the global air transportation community.
