Focuses On National Efforts To Reduce Runway Incursions
The FAA has posted video designed to further enhance airport safety. It is the third installment in a series of instructional videos being produced by the agency.
The video outlines the success of previous initiatives to enhance airport safety and the national efforts underway to further reduce the risk of runway incursions at U.S. airports.
The video also discusses the FAA’s collaborative partnerships with the aviation community to improve runway safety at airports.
The FAA launched the safety information video series last year to provide the airport community with information to help them continue to operate the nation’s airports safely and efficiently.
Previous videos include:
2015 Wildlife Hazard Management and Strike Reporting Update. Wildlife strikes continue to capture media attention. While impacted pilots and airports are reporting strikes, they might not know the critical role their reports play in understanding wildlife issues and developing wildlife policies. This video shows viewers what happens when a strike is reported, from the initial report entry to how the data is analyzed and then used on a national, regional, and airport level. Released June 2015.
Winter Operations Update. This video launches a nationwide pre-season campaign for winter operations safety. It reminds airports to review their Snow and Ice Control Plans and offers best practices for snow and ice control. Released October 2014.
