1 Runway Excursions

2 Runway Excursion 2000

3 Worldwide, runway excursions are the highest single occurrence category of all accidents for commercial & general aviation operations information campaign on runway excursions in Canada – Runway Safety and Incursion Prevention Panel RSIPP

4 Air Canada Pilots Association Air Line Pilots Association Air Transport Association of Canada Air Traffic Specialists/ Local 2245 CAW Canadian Airports Council Canadian Air Traffic Control Association RSIPP Background Canadian Business Aviation Association Canadian Owners and Pilots Association National Airlines Council of Canada NAV CANADA Transport Canada Transportation Safety Board of Canada

5 A runway excursion occurs when an aircraft fails to confine its take off or landing to the designated runway. This may occur during the take off roll if the aircraft leaves the runway other than by becoming fully airborne or if an attempted landing is not completed within the confines of the intended runway. Definition of a Runway Excursions

6 Top Risk Factors Take off Excursions –Rejected take off at a speed greater than V1, loss of pilot directional control, rejecting take off before V1 Landing Excursions –Go around not conducted, touchdown long, landing gear malfunctions and ineffective breaking

7 Pieces of the puzzle 1.Flight operations 2.Air Traffic Management 3.Airport 4.Aircraft manufacturer 5.Regulator

8 Flight Operations Risk Control Measures Stabilized approach criteria No fault go-around policy Training Decision making

9 Airports Risk Control Measures Runway design, markings, condition, maintenance Availability of RSC Reports SNOW and ICE Plans –Defined criteria for closing a runway Runway safety area Aircraft Rescue & Fire-Fighting Visual means for flight crews to determine runway distance

10 Air Traffic Management Risk Control Measures Awareness of the importance of stabilized approaches –descent clearances or approach speeds Selection of runway appropriate to wind Accurate and timely weather reports Accurate and timely runway surface condition reports

11 Transportation Safety Board of Canada High level recommendations from the TSB: In bad weather, pilots need to receive timely information about runway surface conditions. Airports need to lengthen the safety areas at the end of runways or install other engineered systems and structures to safely stop planes that overrun.
