摘要：	Runway safety is a top priority for all users of the National Airspace System, and runway incursions (potential collisions on airport runways) remain among the most critical safety concerns. In fiscal year (FY) 2008, the total number of runway incursions reached a 5-year high of 1,009. While they subsequently decreased to 951 in FY 2009, this still represents a 30-percent increase since 2004. Reducing the risk of runway incursions is a key performance goal for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and requires heightened attention at all levels of the Agency as well as proactive efforts by airlines and airport operators. In August 2007, FAA, airline, and airport officials created a Call to Action Plan (the Plan) for improving runway safety after several close calls at some of the Nations busiest airports. The Plan identified a series of short-, mid-, and long-term initiatives to reduce runway incursions. FAA also established a Runway Safety Councila joint government/industry body to develop a systemic approach for improving runway safety.
