17. CAN PREVENT RUNWAY INCURSIONS
Without runway safety training and evaluation, we can expect the incursions and accidents to increase in the years to come.
The sooner we start training and evaluating our flight crews on surface operating procedures the sooner we will reverse the runway incursion trend.
