Cockpit Alerts Speed Pilot Response Time
Detect hazards within 30 seconds
Honeywell SURF-A uses GPS data, automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B), and advanced analytics to identify other aircraft on or near the runway that could cause an incursion within the next 30 seconds.
Direct aural and visual alerts to pilots
SURF-A provides timely alerts directly in the cockpit—both visual and audible—ensuring pilots know potential hazards before they become critical. Most other solutions alert the control tower but do not alert pilots directly or only provide visual alerts, which can delay response time.
Complements other runway safety solutions
SURF-A will be available as a software update to enhanced ground proximity warning systems (EGPWS) and traffic alert and collision avoidance systems (TCAS). SURF-A is expected to be available for new aircraft and retrofit in 2025, pending FAA certification.
How It Works: Honeywell Surface Alert System
“Even one runway incursion, excursion or wrong-surface incident is one too many. SURF-A adds an ‘extra set of eyes’ in the cockpit to prevent runway accidents.”
Jim Currier, President, Honeywell Aerospace Technologies
