FLIGHT OPERATIONS SAFETY BULLETIN

June 28, 2001

The Regional FAA office has made us aware of a Runway Incursion danger point. The Joplin Missouri airport has seen multiple runway incursions while leaving the ramp heading east on "Charley" taxiway. Many crews have crossed runway 36 after being instructed to hold short. One (1) has been a Trans States crew. We are working very closely with the Regional FAA office and the airport authority in Joplin _ to solve any signage issues that might be present. If you have any questions or suggestions on this situation, please don't hesitate to call.
