De
cemb
er 8, 2005 – SWA 1248A Boeing 737 experienced an
overrun at Chicago
Midway Airport, which resulted in a non-passenger fatali
ty.
The FAA and NTSB determined that proce
dures to assess runway con
tamination required improvements. TALPA was created to reduce further risk
of runway overrun accident
s/incide
n
ts
caused by weather and other factors.

ay Condition Assessment Matrix `(RCAM)The RCAM is a proces
s of describing runway
conditions based on defined terms and increments. Runway conditions on the
RCAM Matrix
are expressed numerically from 0-6 and are known
as a runway condit
ion code (RwyCC).Note: The Federal NOTAM System prohibits the use of “0” in
a FICON NOTAM. AT
C
reporta
ble values are 1-6.RwyCCs replace
Mu valuesRwy
CCs
are
dissem
i
nated to
pilots via
F

O
N NOTAMs and ATIS broadcasts. Pilots use the RwyCC to determine landing performance calculations.Note: The RCAM table is strictly for use by Airport Operations personnel and not ATC.
