  • FAA Runway Safety Report FY 2000
    FAA Runway Safety Report Runway Incursion Trends and Initiatives at Towered Airports in the United States, FY 2000 – FY 2003 August 2004 Preface THE 2004 RUNWAY SAFETY REPORT1 presents an assessment of runway safety in the United States for fiscal years FY 2000 through FY 2003. The report also highlights runway safety initiatives intended to reduce the severity, number, and rate of runway incursions. Both current progress and historical data regarding the reduction of runway incursions can be found on the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) web site (http://www.faa.gov). Effective February 8, 2004, the FAA implemented an organizational change that created an Air Traffic Organization (ATO) in addition to its Regulatory functions. Safety Services, within the ATO, has assumed the responsibilities of the former Office of Runway Safety. Therefore, this FAA Runway Safety Report, which covers a period prior to the implemen- tation of the ATO, is the last in a series of reports that exclusively presents information on runway safety. Safety performance will be an integral part of future ATO products. 1 A glossary of terms and a list of acronyms used in this report are provided in Appendix A. Federal Aviation Administration 1 Executive Summary REDUCING THE RISKS OF RUNWAY INCURSIONS AND RUNWAY COLLISIONS is a top priority of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Runway safety management is a dynamic process that involves measuring runway incursions as well as understanding the factors that contribute to runway collision risks and taking actions to reduce these risks. Runway incursion severity ratings (Categories A through D) indicate the potential for a collision or the margin of safety associated with an event.

  • Out with the Props, in with the Jets
    NEWS RELEASE Out with the props, in with the jets 7/13/2018 For Captain Malcom Ferrand, this year’s July 4 celebration was bittersweet. After 50 years in the air, the Piedmont Airlines pilot was at the controls for the nal time. The trip was made more memorable because he and fellow Piedmont Captain Ricky Snyder — who was also retiring — were operating the company’s last revenue ight of the de Havilland Canada “Dash 8.” At exactly 6:33 p.m., Flight 4927 departed Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) bound for Salisbury, Maryland (SBY), the headquarters of Piedmont, one of American’s wholly owned subsidiaries. The nal ight marked the end of an era in American Airlines history. It’s hard to overestimate the inuence the Dash 8 had on the U.S. aviation industry over the last three decades. Gary Blevins, Piedmont’s director of Operational Control, summed up the importance of the reliable aircraft, explaining that the Dash had one job to do and it performed it well: Provide frequent, quality air service to small communities that otherwise would have little or none. In its heyday, prior to Sept. 11, Piedmont and Allegheny operated a combined eet of 109 Dash 8 airplanes. The aircraft performed well in all weather conditions, sipped fuel through every oil crisis and helped American remain protable during a dicult time in the airline industry. It had an incredible safety record and was appreciated systemwide. Air trac controllers loved the Dash because it could take o and land on short runways in congested cities.
