From page 37...
... Update the ACRP Report 3 accident/incident database to incorporate aircraft overrun and undershoot accidents and incidents occurring after 2006 and include runway veer-off events occurring since 1980.
From page 38...
... Some of these factors include the basic distance required for standard conditions, the runway elevation, the air temperature, the wind, and the runway surface conditions. In this project, the landing distance required is estimated based on each of those factors for the specific type of aircraft.
From page 39...
... For example, to estimate the runway distance required, a basic distance for the type of aircraft and model was used and corrected for temperature, elevation, wind, and surface characteristics. Wind corrections are considered to be average adjustments, and surface conditions are estimated based on weather conditions only, rather than relying on actual runway friction.
