Descripción:Air China Flight 9018, a Boeing 747 freighter, had just arrived at Chicago following a flight from New York and was cleared to turn off runway 14R via a right turn on taxiway Tango 10, a left turn on taxiway Kilo, and to cross runway 27L to the cargo ramp. The controller cleared Korean Air flight 36 (a passenger service to Seoul) for takeoff as the Air China flight was clearing the runway. The Air China flight made the right turn onto Tango 10 then made a left turn onto taxiway Mike instead of Kilo. The Air China flight entered onto runway 14R as the Korean Air Boeing 747-400 was taking off. The Korean Air flight crossed 25 to 50 feet over the top of the Air China flight.

NTSB issued 6 Safety Recommendations
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-066 |
| Require, at all airports with scheduled passenger service, a ground movement safety system that will prevent runway incursions; the system should provide a direct warning capability to flight crews. In addition, demonstrate through computer simulations or other means that the system will, in fact, prevent incursions. (Open - Unacceptable Response) |
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-067 |
| Amend 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 91.129(I) to require that all runway crossings be authorized only by specific air traffic control clearance, and ensure that U.S. pilots, U.S. personnel assigned to move aircraft, and pilots operating under 14 CFR Part 129 receive adequate notification of the change. (Open - Acceptable Response) |
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-068 |
| Amend FAA Order 7110.65, "Air Traffic Control," to require that, when aircraft need to cross multiple runways, air traffic controllers issue an explicit crossing instruction for each runway after the previous runway has been crossed. (Closed - Acceptable Action) |
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-069 |
| Amend FAA Order 7110.65, "Air Traffic Control," paragraph 3-9-4, "Takeoff Position Hold," to discontinue the practice of allowing departing aircraft to hold on active runways at nightime or at any time when ceiling and visibility conditions preclude arriving aircraft from seeing traffic on the runway in time to initiate a safe go-around maneuver. (Closed - Unacceptable Action) |
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-070 |
| Adopt the landing clearance procedure recommended by International Civil Aviation Organization Document 4444-RAC/501, "Procedures for Air Navigation Services--Rules of the Air and Air Traffic Services," Part V, "Aerodrome Control Service," Paragraph 15.2. (Open - Unacceptable Response) |
| Issued: 06-JUL-2000 | To: FAA | A-00-071 |
| Amend FAA Order 7110.65, "Air Traffic Control," to require the use of standard International Civil Aviation Organization phraseology (excluding conditional phraseology) for airport surface operations, and periodically emphasize to controllers the need to use this phraseology and to speak at reasonable rates when communicating with all flight crews, especially those whose primary language is not English.
