Özet
Global Reporting Format (GRF) for runway surface conditions is an important step in improving aviation safety by providing standardized and consistent information. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of the GRF among pilots. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used to comprehensively address all aspects of the study. The sample consisted of 266 pilots. Findings showed that the majority of pilots are aware of the GRF and value its benefits, such as consistency, reliability, and standardized terminology, despite it being a new method. Pilots highlighted the role of the GRF in improving communication and decision-making for take-off and landing. However, the study also identified challenges, including occasional inaccuracies in reporting, the need for real-time updates, the length of ATIS reports, and inconsistencies in application across airports in different regions. These issues highlight the human factor and the need to develop the GRF. The study makes a unique contribution by highlighting both the practical benefits and the challenges of the GRF from the perspective of the pilots. It is recommended that future research include a more diverse sample of pilots from all regions and that technical studies be undertaken to compare runway surface conditions with aircraft performance under the GRF. This will provide a more complete understanding of the effectiveness of the GRF and identify areas for further improvement.
