ground operations. Pilot deviations can and frequently do occur on the ground. Many strategies and tactics pilots use to avoid airborne deviations also work on the ground. Pilots should also remain vigilant about vehicle/pedestrian deviations (V/PDs). A vehicle or pedestrian ... deviation includes pedestrians, vehicles or other objects interfering with aircraft operations by entering or moving on the runway movement area without authorization from air traffic control. In serious instances, any ground deviation (PD or VPD) can result in a runway…
- Chapter 14: Airport Operations › Collision Avoidance › Clearing Procedures
Clearing Procedures The following procedures and considerations are in place to assist pilots in collision avoidance under various situations: • Before takeoff—prior to taxiing onto a runway or landing area in preparation for takeoff, pilots should scan the approach area ... airspace. • Straight and level—during sustained periods of straight-and-level flight, a pilot should execute appropriate clearing procedures at periodic intervals. • Traffic patterns—entries into traffic patterns while descending should be avoided. • Traffic at VOR sites—due to converging…

Runway Safety Area Boundary Sign Some taxiway stubs also have a runway safety area boundary sign that faces the runway and is visible to you only when exiting the runway. This sign has a yellow background with black markings ... typically used at towered airports where a controller commonly requests you to report clear of a runway. This sign is intended to provide you with another visual cue that is used as a guide to determine when you are clear…

types of signs are: • Mandatory instruction signs—red background with white inscription. These signs denote an entrance to a runway, critical area, or prohibited area. Figure 14-27. (A) Yellow “X” placed on surface of temporarily closed runways. (B) Lighted ... placed on temporarily closed runways. (C) Lighted “X” at night showing a temporarily closed runway. • Location signs—black with yellow inscription and a yellow border, no arrows. They are used to identify a taxiway or runway location, to identify…
