When runway excursions occur – and they inevitably do – the damage in passenger safety, equipment/hull loss, operational delays, and reputation for an airline and an airport can be catastrophic.

To mitigate this risk, more and more airlines are joining the ABARnet™ global reporting network to put proven Aircraft Braking Action Reports (ABARs) at the fingertips of their pilots as they approach contaminated or potentially compromised runways. These carriers recognize the unique value of sharing – with pilots, ATC, airfield operations, and others – precise and predictable insight into braking action that can help avert an excursion.
