Trainings to AvoidDeviations and Incursions


A Big Training Challenge Looking for a Solution


“The key feature of this system that make it susceptible to breakdown are that it is constructed of fallible agents (people) that may occasionally make errors in

performing task or processing information”.

Reference: NASA Technical Memo, “AltitudeDeviations: Breakdowns of an Error TolerantSystem”.


First Some Definitions Deviation: An action of or by a pilot that

results in a failure to comply with an ATC clearance 2 - Types of Deviations

Airspace Violations - Horizontal Altitude Violations - Vertical

Incursion: Same as a deviation but occurring on the airport surface


What is the Problem?

Trainings to AvoidDeviations and

Incursions

Runway Incursions (2nd Quarter 2008)

51 events - pilots entering or crossing runway and hold short lines after reading back hold short instructions

48 events - pilots entering or crossing runway and hold short lines, hold short read back not required

36 events – pilots landed or departed without clearance

29 events – pilot taxied wrong route and entered runway or crossed hold short lines

What is Causing these Problem…Any

Common Threads?


Causes GAO Report indicates that the rate of incursions

are increasing and are approaching the peak levels seen in 2001. Reasons cited: Technology Challenges Lack of Pertinent Data Human Factor Issues

FAA data indicates the most common factor cited for losing track of location is that pilot is “heads down” programming FMC, conducting checklists or talking to company/FBO

ASAP root cause often related to CRM

Runway Incursion: Pilot Deviations (PD): what we’re focused on here today

The other two classifications of Runway Incursion include:

Operational Error/Deviation (OE/D): The failure of an air traffic controller to follow procedures resulting in loss of separation or instructing an aircraft to takeoff or land on a closed runway.

Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviations (PP/D): Any unauthorized entry to an airport Movement Area by a vehicle or pedestrian or failure to follow procedures and/or Air Traffic Instruction.
