FAASTeam CFI Workshop 8

July 1 through September 30, 2010


Module 8 – Core Topic 15Pilot Deviations, Including Runway Incursions:

• Educate your students to recognize the potential for Pilot Deviations during all Areas of Operation

• Create and demonstrate situations that will enable students to experience various types of Pilot Deviations first hand in the training environment.

• Teach and practice strategies to mitigate Pilot Deviations dependant on distractions and/or cockpit confusion.

Are all of your students registered at FAASafety.gov?




Runway Incursion Challenge• 58 million landings and

takeoffs last year *

• Thousands of runway crossings per day!

• Human error is a certainty • Technology has limitations

• Causes – Consequences are global in nature

Source: * FAA Runway Safety Fact Sheet




Pilots are Very Confident by Nature and by Culture

• I’m a professional!• I’ve trained hard and long for this!• I’ve done it thousands of times!• I’m current and very proficient!• What could possibly go wrong???




What can you do to reduce runway incursions?

• Plan your surface operations• Employ cockpit discipline• Understand taxi procedures• Make proper use of aircraft lights• Use proper communication techniques• Understand/recognize airport signs and

markings• STAY ALERT – Look both ways prior to

crossing any runways!




Planning Surface Operations

• Pre plan taxi routes at departure and destination airports

• Ensure you have an accurate, up to date airport diagram available

• Review NOTAM’s and ATIS for possible construction impacts – rwy/twy closures

• Look for “hot spots”– Jeppesen airport diagrams – FAA charts




Verify Compass heading to confirm proper runway taxiway selection.




Cockpit Discipline

• Minimize distractions during critical phases– Taxi for takeoff is where majority of RIs occur– Delay checklists until off the runway

• Recognize when you need to have “heads up”– Any time the plane is moving but…– Especially when approaching a runway or an intersecting taxiway

• Write down taxi routes and clearances– From RIIEP – 72% of pilots who had incursion DID NOT

• Use the airport diagram during taxi– From RIIEP – 47% of pilots who had Rwy inc DID NOT

• Verbalize critical instructions to other crew members– Hold Short or Crossing instructions




Pilot Deviations What’s the Problem?




• TFR – Temporary Flight Restriction

• SFRA – Special Flight Rules Area

• MOA – Military Operations Area

• ADIZ – Air Defense Identification Zone

• Prohibited – From the surface to defined limit

• Alert – Informs of a high volume of aerial activity

• Warning – Areas 3 NM beyond the US coast, possible hazardous activity




SITUATIONAL AWARENESS WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!

1. The before take-off checklist should be completed while taxing.a. Trueb. False

2. At a controlled airport, if you are unsure of where to taxi after landing, you shoulda. Consult your taxi chartb. Ask ATC c. Ask you co-pilot or passengerd. Taxi around until you find your destination on the airport.




3. True or False; As of June 2010, Runway Incursions are on a “downward” trend.

4. Should the pilot read-back “all” takeoff and landing

clearances, including the runway designator?? 5. Only “read-back” an ATC clearance when on an “IFR”

flight plan. True or False?
