CFI & DPE Runway Safety Tips
This notice expired on
Friday, May 31, 2019

As a CFI or DPE, you are in a position to make a profound impact in reducing runway incursions.  Did you know that from October 1, 2018 through March 31, 2019, there has been an average of two (2) runway incursions per day because of general aviation pilot deviations?  These incursions carry a risk of tremendous loss of life and property, and therefore demand your focus and expertise.

Runway Incursion Avoidance standards are the same for Private, Commercial, and ATP pilots (reference applicable ACS or PTS).  During training and testing, are you ensuring your students and applicants demonstrate knowledge of and skill in Runway Incursion Avoidance?  Check out the pertinent sections in these publications:

  • FAA-H-8083-25  Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge
  • AC 91-73  Parts 91 and 135 Single Pilot, Flight School Procedures During Taxi Operations
  • AC 61-98  Currency Requirements and Guidance for the Flight Review and Instrument Proficiency Check
