5. Great Idea!

9. Clear & Concise Communications Listen before you transmit Know exactly what you want to say when you call the tower Never assume! Ensure you understand all instructions Readback all “hold short” instructions

10. Airport Familiarity Review, and if possible, carry airfield charts/diagrams (departure/arrival airport as a minimum) Be responsible for familiarization of arrival and departure airport configurations Be involved in local safety briefings and Safety Manager presentations

11. Airport Familiarity Review FAA Air Traffic Bulletins for pertinent runway safety information Review Airport Circulars When in doubt, request progressive taxi

12. Proper Cockpit Procedures Avoid unnecessary conversation during surface operations Constantly scan outside of the cockpit If lost, contact the tower immediately Increase aircraft conspicuity through proper use of aircraft lights

13. Low Visibility Operations Increased vigilance is required Cockpit workload & distractions tend to increase As cockpit activities increase, attention to detail tends to decrease Fatigue levels increase

14. Team Effort We will never be satisfied with status quo when it comes to safety. It cannot depend on one person; it requires a commitment and vigilance by all of the players. And that is one of our biggest accomplishments with the renewed program in runway safety.

15. Teamwork To effectively mitigate the increasing number of runway incursions and related surface incidents, everyone must get INVOLVED!!
