This aerospace recommended practice provides definition for Airport Runway Brooms and covers requirements for various configurations of runway brooms with and without a carrier vehicle. Runway brooms are primarily used to move and clear snow and ice down to bare pavement on...
This specification covers the requirements for a complete Runway Visual Range (RVR) system with a capability of meeting Categories I, II, IIIa, and IIIb levels of flight operations. The system may include but not be limited to the following: a visibility sensor (VS), data processing unit...

ESDU 08014 provides guidance for the development of water pond test programmes, which are performed primarily to ensure that any ingestion of contaminant by the engine intakes of an aeroplane operating on a contaminated runway surface does not pose any deleterious consequences on engine...
INTRODUCTION General Accumulations of water on airfield runways affect aircraft operations in three ways. (1) In damp conditions, although there is no measurable depth of water, there is a loss of adhesion between tyre and surface that follows from a masking of the sharpness of the...
This specification covers the installation of Runway Visual Range equipment as a system at airports designated for Category I and/or Category II operations.
This specification covers the requirements for the construction and installation of a Medium Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment Indicator Lights (MALSR) and a Runway End Identifier Lights (REIL) System. Included for the MALSR and REIL systems are: their lights,...

This document contains minimum performance and installation standards for elevated and in-pavement runway guard lights (RGLs). These standards provide guidance to designers, installers, manufacturers, service providers and users of these lights. RGLs are used to enhance the conspicuity of...
ESDU 95015 provides information for use with ESDU 71026 in the selection of the appropriate data for tyre-runway friction. For runways for which texture depth measurements were available, cumulative probability distribution graphs show the distribution of mean texture depths in the...
