Special Use Alert I ✔✔Signifies a precautionary approach to a situation where a real or suspected emergency exists on an aircraft, but the nature of the emergency would not normally cause serious difficulty or make the anticipated landing unsafe. Alert II ✔✔Signifies an actual aircraft emergency exists in flight, and an accident may well occur resulting in injuries and aircraft damage. Alert III ✔✔Signifies an actual aircraft accident has occurred. Parts of Airport Emergency Plan ✔✔1. Mitigation 2. Preparedness 3. Response 4. Recovery Category A Incursion ✔✔A serious incident in which a collision was narrowly avoided. Category B Incursion ✔✔An incident in which separation decreases and a significant potential for collision exists, which may result in a time-critical corrective and evasive response to avoid a collision. Category C Incursion ✔✔An incident characterized by ample time or distance to avoid a collision. Category D Incursion ✔✔An incident that meets the definition of runway incursion such as incorrect presence of a single vehicle, person or aircraft on the protected area of a surface designated for the landing and take-off of aircraft but with no immediate safety consequences Navigational Systems must operate with: ✔✔1.
