THE FOURTH MEETING OF THE AERODROMES OPERATIONS AND PLANNING WORKING GROUP (AOP/WG/4) Activities for new Runway Surface Condition Assessment Presented by Japan Civil Aviation Bureau Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Concept of new RWY surface condition assessment • Runway Condition Code (RWYCC) • Runway Condition Description • Slippery when wet has an assigned RWYCC • Runway Condition Assessment Matrix (RCAM) • Pilot Report of Braking Action is important • Globally harmonized NOTAM (SNOWTAM) format RCAM Snowy area Rishiri Wakkanai 45°N MLIT managed Airport (20) Rebun Monbetsu Local government managed Airport (65) Memanbetsu Company managed Airport (4) Asahikawa Nakashibetsu Civil -
