Reducing the Risks of Runway Incursions and Collisions.
Honeywell’s SmartRunway™ addresses one of the National Transportation Safety Board’s (NTSB) top 10 global safety concerns – runway incursions. With one incident happening daily worldwide, runway incursions cost the industry about US$100 million a year for passenger injuries and aircraft repairs and inspections.
As a next-generation solution to our already popular Runway Alert and Advisory System (RAAS), SmartRunway improves situational awareness by providing timely positional advisories and graphical alerts to crew members during taxi, takeoff, final approach, landing and rollout to reduce the likelihood of a runway incursion.
- Capitalizes on Honeywell’s worldwide terrain and runway database, which has proven itself for over 600 million flight hours
- Includes the previous routine and non-routine advisories offered with RAAS with new advisories and a new graphical alerting feature - supplementing existing aural RAAS alerts in support of ‘quiet’ cockpit philosophies
- Compliments electronic flight bag (EFB) solutions through heads-up aural advisors
- Simple installation as a software addition to the Mark V and Mark VII Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) or Primus EPIC
- Designed for growth capability with future ADS-B functionality
SmartRunway is available now and is offered for both commercial and business aviation platforms.
