  • FAA Annual Runway Safety Report 2009
    Air Traffic Organization Annual Runway Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue, SW Safety Report 2009 Washington, DC 20591 2009-AJS-129 A Message from the FAA Administrator Dear Colleagues: We’re making progress on the issue of runway safety, but as an agency and as an industry, we need to do more. This report details the strides we’ve made over the last year. It also includes our next steps to take what is arguably one of the safest locations in all of aviation— a U.S. runway— and make it safer still. In the long term, runway safety is very, very good. Last year, we had 25 serious runway incursions. That’s out of more than 58 million operations. Serious runway incursions have dropped by more than half since 2001. Nine of those 25 serious incursions last year involved commercial aircraft. The 25 incursions were up one from the previous year, which was an all-time low. But the 2008 totals show that we must increase our vigilance. Last year, runway incursions of all types increased by some 13 percent over 2007, rising from 891 to 1,009. So far in fiscal year 2009, the data look promising with a projected drop in total incursions for the full year by some five percent and an accompanying reduction in serious incursions by at least 50 percent. These data are encouraging. But while the actual runway incursion numbers are still a very thin slice of overall operations, as an aviation professional, I believe that very good is still not good enough.

    Appendix C 14 CFR PART 150 REVIEW Appendix C 14 CFR Part 150 Review INVENTORY Ryan Airfield INTRODUCTION The purpose of this review is to provide an assessment for the current Noise Compati- bility Study by reexamining the noise and land use conditions at Ryan Airfield and the surrounding area. The information presented in this section will be used to identify existing and future noise-sensitive areas that may be adversely impacted by aircraft noise and to evaluate the current strategies to mitigate or avoid those impacts. The information in this chapter includes: A discussion of the purpose and procedures required to undertake a Noise Compati- bility Program, as described under Title 14, Part 150 of the Code of Federal Regula- tions (CFR) (formerly referred to as F.A.R. Part 150). A description of airport facilities, airspace, and airport operating procedures. A discussion of the roles and responsibilities for each of the entities impacted by aircraft activity from Ryan Airfield. An overview of the land use planning documents and tools applicable within the area surrounding the airport. The information outlined in this appendix was obtained through on-site inspections, interviews with airport staff, airport tenants, and representatives of Pima County Planning, the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT), and the Federal Avia- C-1 tion Administration (FAA). Information was also obtained from available documents concerning the airport and the Tucson area. This review is being prepared concurrently with the Airport Master Plan Update for Ryan Airfield. This provides ample opportunity for the full assessment of potential noise impacts of alternative master planning strategies.
