The National Transportation Safety Board recommends new technology in airplane cockpits to give pilots quicker notice of an impending collision on runways.a January 2023 runway incursion at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City
In the JFK incident, an air traffic controller received an alert of the runway conflict and canceled the takeoff clearance for the Delta jet, avoiding a collision. Feyerisen and a team from Honeywell came to Seattle last week to demonstrate their Surf-A system that provides visual and audible warnings when there is a potential collision or when a pilot is lined up to take off or land on a taxiway.
The team used a Falcon 900 jet to recreate the JFK runway incursion scenario. As pilot Joe Duval, the director of flight test operations at Honeywell, accelerated the 757 down the runway, the Surf-A system alerted him of the intruding aircraft.
