U.S. Runway Incursion Definition
(La Definición de una Incursión de la Pisa de los EE.UU.)
“Any occurrence in the airport runway
environment involving an aircraft, vehicle,
person, or object on the ground that creates a
collision hazard or results in a loss of required
separation with an aircraft taking off, intending
to take off, landing, or intending to land.”
“Cualquier ocurrencia en el ambiente de la pista de aeropuerto en que un
avión, un vehículo, una persona, o un objeto crea un peligro de la colisión
o resulta en la pérdida de la separación requerida con un avión
despegando, listo para despegar, aterrizando, o listo para aterrizar.”

Types of Runway Incursions
(Los Tipos de Incursiones en las Pistas)
 The FAA investigates runway incursions and attributes the occurrence to
one or more of the following error types.
(FAA investiga las incursiones en las pistas y atribuye la ocurrencia a uno o más de los tipos de error
siguientes)
Operational Errors
Pilot Deviations
Vehicle/Pedestrian Deviations
(Errores operacionales)
(Desviaciones de Pilotos)
(Desviaciones de Vehículos/Peatones
An operational error (OE) is an
action of an Air Traffic
Controller (ATC) that results in:
A pilot deviation (PD) is an
action of a pilot that
violates any Federal
Aviation Regulation. For
example, a pilot fails to
obey air traffic control
instructions to not cross
an active runway when
following the authorized
route to an airport gate.
A vehicle or pedestrian
deviation (VPD) 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.


Less than the required
minimum separation between
two or more aircraft, or
between an aircraft and
obstacles (obstacles include
vehicles, equipment, and
personnel on runways)
