Description

PURPOSE

This circular aims to provide an overarching conceptual understanding of the surface friction characteristics that contribute to controlling an aircraft via the critical tire-to-ground contact area. The intent is to provide broad and fundamental concepts and guidance to support maintenance of surface friction characteristics and the global reporting system and format for assessing and reporting runway surface conditions applicable as of 5 November 2020.

The global reporting format for assessing and reporting runway surface conditions is outlined in amendments to the following documents:

• Annex 3 — Meteorological Service for International Air Navigation

• Annex 6 — Operation of Aircraft, Part I — International Commercial Air Transport — Aeroplanes and Part II — International General Aviation — Aeroplanes.

• Annex 8 — Airworthiness of Aircraft

• Annex 14 — Aerodromes, Volume I — Aerodrome Design and Operations

• Annex 15 — Aeronautical Information Services

• Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS) — Aerodromes (PANS-Aerodromes, Doc 9981)

• Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS) — Aeronautical Information Management (PANS-AIM, Doc 10066)

• Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS) — Air Traffic Management (PANS-ATM, Doc 4444)

• Aeroplane Performance Manual (Doc 10064)

• Airport Services Manual, Part 2 — Pavement Surface Conditions, Part 8 — Airport Operational Services and Part 9 — Airport Maintenance Practices (Doc 9137)

This circular addresses the following issues:

a) surface friction characteristics of pavements and runway surface contaminants;

b) how surface characteristics relate to aircraft performance;

c) assessment of runway surface conditions;

d) reporting and dissemination of runway surface conditions; and

e) the need for appropriate training of personnel involved in c) and d).
