Runway safety has received a great deal of attention in recent years from Congress, the public, the media and FAA leadership. In August 2007, the FAA met with more than 40 aviation leaders from airlines, airports, air traffic controller and pilot unions and aerospace manufacturers under the agency’s Call to Action for Runway Safety. In January 2008, we convened a follow-up meeting. The focused efforts of all parties involved have been responsible for substantial progress toward creating a safer runway environment.
The Office of Safety is implementing initiatives in the areas of education, training and awareness that can have an immediate impact, while at the same time pursuing technological efforts that hold promise for the future. Our goal is to reduce both the frequency and severity of events that pose a risk to human life, aircraft, equipment and infrastructure. Driving their frequency down lessens the possibility of any misfortune. By reducing the severity of such events, we aim to relegate them to the realm of minor infractions.
We are making the most of our opportunities for mitigation of safety risk by concentrating resources on high yield items with the lowest cost and quickest turn around, such as improvements in runway surface marking. Education provides current information in a very dynamic environment. Raising awareness of the risks and their mitigations brings attention to the human factors element, which research has shown to be a key factor in many incidents. Recurrent training keeps skills fresh and at a professional level. Outreach brings stakeholders together in a cooperative environment that allows the synergy of coordinated efforts and the sharing of lessons learned elsewhere. Technology offers another layer of support by increasing situational awareness in both the cockpit and the control tower.
The FAA’s Runway Safety Program seeks to address all aspects of surface safety in this critical environment including wrong runway departures and runway incursions. There are always new opportunities to make the system safer through continuous improvement. Growth in the number of takeoffs and landings is expected to be steady in the years ahead, adding to the already challenging nature of maintaining safe and efficient operations in the NAS.
This National Runway Safety Plan provides context first by supplying a brief snapshot of runway safety performance for FY 2004 to the present and explaining some of the driving factors that are relevant to the Runway Safety Program including input from external entities such as the Department of Transportation (DOT) Office of Inspector General (OIG), the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). It then discusses the accomplishments, priorities and recent efforts of the Runway Safety Office. Finally, it offers a view of our near-term plans for fiscal years 2009 through 2011.
