I Can’t Walk - They’ve Tied My Shoelaces Together.” At worst, this could lead to a collision.Ī good mnemonic to remember about what side of a runway hold short line you are on is to “ Dash through the Dash and Stop at the Solid.” “You Don’t Understand. This sort of error could lead to a go-around for landing traffic or an aborted takeoff for departing traffic. However, these helpful tools won’t do any good if the pilot is rushed or preoccupied with head-down tasks within the cockpit and don’t see the signs. Many airports across the country have installed above ground signage including runway guard lights and enhanced taxiway centerline markings. It’s important for pilots to understand the various taxiway signage and markings and actively scan for them. The word “roger” is not a clearance it is simply an acknowledgment of your last transmission. Remember that you are not authorized to cross any runway enroute to your destination runway, even if it is inactive, unless you’ve received a clearance to do so. If you omit this, the tower will ask you for the runway hold-short read-back. Make sure you read back all hold-short instructions with your call sign. It’s important to listen carefully for any runway hold-short instructions. When the tower issues a taxi clearance, they will first state the runway assignment followed by the detailed taxi route. While the aircraft may not be on the runway itself, it is still within the runway safety area intended to protect aircraft taking off or landing on that runway.Īnother common runway incursion happens when a pilot is issued a clearance to taxi to a specific runway but doesn’t understand that this clearance does not authorize them to cross any other runway encountered on the way to that assigned runway. Pilots have also crossed hold-short lines, and held short of the white runway edge markings.
Pilots have failed to hold short of a runway after receiving, and in some cases, after correctly reading back hold-short instructions from the tower. A clearance to taxi to a runway is not a clearance to taxi onto that runway. Whether the runway is active or not, a specific clearance is required to cross any runway. Hold at the hold short line, not the white runway edge marking.Īll too often at airports in the national airspace system, pilots fail to hold short of or they cross active runways when they are instructed to taxi to a runway or a specific spot on the airport. To top it all off, the film contains a few obscenities, some profanities and crude sexual references which only spoil the comedy.A clearance to taxi to a runway is not a clearance to taxi onto that runway.
We see obscured upper female nudity, and near the end, Michelle starts shooting off guns and pretending to ride an electric bull machine. The really objectionable scenes come when Topper and Michelle make fun of BASIC INSTINCT. In the climactic shoot-out scene, we see a running tally of dead bodies on the screen and people die just by having bullets thrown in their direction. The violence is cartoon violence, where people get hit and their bodies retain the shape like claymation figures. In short, HOT SHOTS! PART DEUX is a mindless, silly movie. Making fun of movies from APOCALYPSE NOW, RAMBO, BASIC INSTINCT, and even the WIZARD OF OZ, the plot moves from joke to joke so fast that one hardly notices when it misses a beat. He is accompanied by CIA operative Michelle Huddlestone who falls in lust with Topper right away. Richard Crenna reenacts his role in the RAMBO movies by playing Colonel Denton Walters who tries to enlist Topper for one “last” dangerous mission. This episode revolves around the well worn story of an evil Middle-East dictator who captures American troops from Desert Storm, and only one man can get them out, Topper Harley (Charlie Sheen). Avoiding subtlety at all costs, HOT SHOTS! PART DEUX, perpetuates the manic, burlesque humor that is the hallmark of contemporary Hollywood comedy.
