3. Limited airport capacity leading to:
a. Traffic delays and pressure to maintain operational areas open
b. Pressure to maintain aircraft deicing capacity
4. Non-routine operational conditions
a. Few winter weather events per year restrict staff from gaining more experience
b. Limited airport capability to handle very severe and unique winter weather conditions
c. Limited capability to provide standardized winter weather conditions training to personnel
d. Pilots unfamiliar with deicing pad layout/operations
Effect Categories
The major effects categories associated with winter weather operations at XXX can be summarized
as follows:
1. Runway excursion accidents (overruns and veer-offs) due to poor runway surface friction
conditions or asymmetric braking and drag
2. Runway incursion accidents due to loss of situational awareness
3. Aircraft/vehicle/equipment/personnel collisions due to loss of situational awareness under
winter weather conditions and limited experience of staff working under such conditions
4. . . .
Mitigation Actions
A series of mitigating actions have been identified to control risks associated with winter weather
operations at XXX. The key actions as they refer to the summary risks described above are:
