THE COURSE AT A GLANCE
What it helps you work on.
The FAA's Runway Safety Pilot Simulator brings together interactive scenarios and animated replays about airport-surface operations. Topics include non-towered communication, using an airport diagram, distractions and recognizing when a pilot cannot comply with an instruction.
Use a scenario as a short briefing exercise: pause, identify the clearance limit and explain the next movement before continuing. Instructors can ask students to describe where they would stop and seek clarification. The material supplements airport-specific preparation; it is not a substitute for current diagrams, notices or instruction.
