This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the results an audit of the FAA¿s Runway Safety Area (RSA) program. An RSA is a rectangular space around a runway that provides critical safety margins for landing and departing aircraft, thereby helping to minimize the risk to aircraft and passengers from flights that undershoot, overrun, or veer off a runway. Over the last 10 years, 75 aircraft have overrun or veered off the Nation¿s runways, resulting in nearly 200 injuries and 12 fatalities. The audit objectives were to: (1) assess airport sponsors¿ and FAA¿s progress and challenges, if any, in fulfilling the congressional RSA mandate; and (2) evaluate the effectiveness of FAA¿s process for identifying, prioritizing, and funding needed RSA improvements.

Download or read book Runway Safety written by Iain McCreary and published by . This book was released on 2010-10-31 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the single best analysis of runway safety, FOD, and on-runway strikes presently available. It is data driven, values neutral, and draws together information from airlines, airports, regulators, and service/technology. It, for the first time, knits together an industry-wide perspective that allows like-for-like comparison of runway safety incidents, including incursions and excursions.Chapters detail the characteristics and statistics behind strike damage; direct and indirect costs; expected costs for the leading airlines and airports; a step-by-step airport investment case; an airline investment case; and details on the minimum required performance standards for scanning systems.The results are compelling and, for many readers, surprising. Long held assumptions about what is and is not important, about what works to reduce risks and what does not, are turned upside down. Structured for easy reading, and quickly digestible with tools to support your own analyses, the report is quickly becoming 'required reading' in the aviation community. Whether read by a regulator, airport operator, airline, service provider, or technology vendors, this report has the answers to your questions about FOD, bird strikes, and automated runway scanning.
