Скачать или смотреть From the Flight Deck – Complex Airfield Geometry #6: Runway Thresholds In Close Proximity

This is the 6th of 7 videos in our From the Flight Deck - Complex Airfield Geometry series.

When runway thresholds are in close proximity, or a connecting taxiway coincides with the intersection of two runways, pilots must be cautious and ensure that they depart the correct runway.

Always confirm that your heading matches the runway on which you have been cleared to takeoff, BEFORE applying take-off power.

0:54 - The same type of situation can occur on landing, as well. With thresholds in close proximity, pilots may inadvertently land on the wrong runway.

The FAA's From the Flight Deck video series uses aircraft-mounted cameras to capture runway and taxiway footage and combines them with diagrams and visual graphics to clearly identify hot spots and other safety-sensitive items.
