1.1 EASA Workshop Background
11 - 12 March 2010
Background
Runway friction characteristics, a multidisciplinary subject Runway overruns and veer-off: contributing factors ice, snow, slush or standing water patches, ICAO Annexes and Aerodrome Design and Operations Manuals do not provide exhaustive specifications, Significant differences occur in the actual application of ICAO provisions in Member States.

adverse weather conditions; e.g. water, slush or dry/wet snow on the runway. The reason for this was that such measurements, whe operations
Background
Controllers concerns: no appropriate and reliable information, Measurements could be seriously misleading, AIBs suggestions for R&D Joint Winter Programme 96 - 03 EASA recognised the potential of safety improvement of aircraft and aerodrome operation, if fully validated and included in regulation and/or guidance.
