Global aviation bodies are worried
over the contribution of air accidents associated with runway operations. Amid
calls for collaboration and introduction of safety initiatives, experts at a
forum in Lagos set timelines for Nigeria to reduce runway incursion and related
threats to air safety, KELVIN OSA OKUNBOR reports.
There is growing
concern over air safety across the globe, following recurring incidents and
accidents of runway operations. According to the International Civil Aviation
Organisation (ICAO), about one-third of aviation accidents are associated with
runway operations.
Sequel to the development, ICAO introduced sone safety
initiatives to reduce the accidents. They were endorsed last year by ICAO
partners, including Flight Safety Foundation, at the first meeting of the ICAO
Global Runway Safety Symposium in Montreal, Canada.
The global civil
aviation regulator, ICAO, has called for compilation and further development of
best practices and greater sharing of information among member
states.
One of the first requirements, it said, would be the development
of common definitions, metrics and methods of analysis to enable more complete
information sharing, as well as the improved reporting of operational hazards.
