It continues to be one of the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) highest priorities and encompasses pilots, air traffic controllers and airport vehicle drivers. AIRPORT DIAGRAMS Search the FAA Database using our search tool to access PDF versions of airport diagrams. Airport diagrams are specifically designed to assist in the movement of ground traffic at locations with complex runway or taxiway configurations. HOT SPOTS A hot spot is a location on an airport movement area with a history of potential risk of collision or runway incursion and where heightened attention is necessary. WHAT IS A RUNWAY INCURSION? Any occurrence at an aerodrome involving the incorrect presence of an aircraft, vehicle or person on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and takeoff of aircraft. THERE ARE FOUR CATEGORIES OF RUNWAY INCURSIONS: Category A: A collision is narrowly avoided. Category B: Separation decreases and there is a significant potential for collision which may result in a time critical corrective or evasive response to avoid a collision. Category C: Ample time and/or distance is provided to avoid a collision. Category D: Incorrect presence of a single vehicle, person or aircraft on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and takeoff of aircraft but with no immediate safety consequences. 24 HORIZONS DECEMBER <strong>2018</strong>
