Safe-Runway Operations

Introduction

This three day Safe-runway operations course provides practical training in addressing runway safety related topics and runway incursion prevention and runway excursion mitigating measures.

The course provides participants with the principles and concepts derived from ICAO manual on the prevention of runway incursions, doc 9870, the European action plans on the prevention of runway incursions 2.0 and excursions 1.0 in order to assist in understanding the key components and their mitigating measures on safe-runway operations. Participants will become familiar working with the relevant runway safety action plans.

Participants are expected to analyze several case studies and draft specific mitigating measures, either individually or within groups. Furthermore participants will work together in groups as runway Safety Teams by implementing reasonable and effective measures to enhance safe-runway operations.

As a pre-course assignment, participants are requested to prepare two case studies, which will be used throughout the course as case study material.

The course is highly interactive and is targetted at management-level participants.
