IATA Global Reporting Format (GRF) for Runway Surface Conditions (SAC-002)

Goal 3-hour e-learning course Following the ICAO Council 207th Session in 2016, a new Global Reporting Format (GRF) for Runway Surface Condition Assessment and Reporting will be applicable as of 4 November 2021. The GRF is a globally harmonized methodology that is intended to be the only reporting format for international aviation, with the objective of reducing runway excursions. In a joint effort between IATA and ICAO, this course aims to assist flight crew to understand and use the new runway condition reporting requirements as outlined in ICAO Circular 355 (Assessment, Measurement and Reporting of Runway Surface Conditions) and ICAO Doc 10064 (Aeroplane Performance Manual [APM]). Get to know fundamental changes in the new reporting system related to the introduction of Runway Condition Code (RWYCC) and enable flight crew assessment of takeoff and landing performances based upon the reported runway surface condition.
