What is ASRS?

The Aviation Safety Reporting System is NASA's voluntary, confidential, non- punitive incident-reporting system, established 1976. Pilots, controllers, dispatchers, and maintenance technicians file reports describing safety- relevant events. NASA de-identifies every report before adding it to the public database. Reports are not investigated by NASA, the FAA, or the NTSB — they represent the reporter's perspective.

Pilot narrative

Verbatim from the de-identified NASA record. First-person account by the reporter. NASA strips identifying details (names, company, specific time); anonymization placeholders are ZZZ, X, Y.

Prior to landing Runway 19, briefed expected Taxiway Lima to ramp. After landing as Pilot Flying, I heard taxi Lima hold short Runway 24 and restated clearance. We passed Golf and ATC then said we were supposed to take a Golf high speed off of Runway 24. I never heard it and Pilot Monitoring may or may not have verbalized it after acknowledgment. It was dark and I was over focused on taxiing the jet. No conflict occurred. We received new instruction to continue on Taxiway Lima to Charlie then hold short of Runway 24, then cleared to cross to ramp. After crossing runway, I had to stop the jet to determine which way to turn to go to [FBO]. Both pilots were tired after long day of IMC in heavy rain and crosswinds. ATC didn't hear our call sign on read back and then admonished us to state our flight ID which we did at every radio call.

ASRS reports are voluntarily submitted, de-identified by NASA, and represent the reporter's perspective. The presence of reports on a topic cannot be used to infer prevalence in the National Airspace System. The authoritative source is the NASA ASRS Database Online at asrs.arc.nasa.gov ↗.
