Every runway is covered in markings, but to a trained pilot, they’re more than just paint on pavement. In this educational video from Epic Flight Academy, we break down how runway markings communicate critical information and how pilots use them to safely taxi, take off, and land.

You’ll learn about:
• How runway numbers show direction and help pilots line up correctly
• What centerlines, aiming points, and touchdown zone markings tell pilots on approach
• The difference between standard and displaced thresholds
• How runway markings, lighting, and charts work together to improve safety

Understanding runway markings helps pilots make better decisions, reduce risk, and operate confidently at any airport.
