China Southern Airlines flight 698, an Airbus A319, was involved in a runway incursion incident with
an All Nippon Airways Airbus A320-211 (JA8394) at Nagoya-Chubu Centrair International Airport (NGO).
Flight 698 inadvertently entered the active runway where the A320 was about to land.
This serious incident is presumed to have occurred because Aircraft A entered the runway without stopping at the holding point, in violation of the controller’s instructions, while Aircraft B, which had already received landing clearance, was on final approach to the same runway.
Regarding the fact that Aircraft A entered the runway despite the controller’s instruction to stop, the following contributing factors are considered:
During taxi, the crew of Aircraft A decided to depart using a different takeoff procedure than originally planned, and
When requesting takeoff clearance without being fully prepared for that new procedure, the crew became overly focused on the takeoff preparation,
This resulted in missing the landing clearance given to Aircraft B, and
They misunderstood the controller’s phrase "A3S available" to mean they had permission to enter the runway.
