Most have involved a plane on our active runway-either an incursion for takeoff or previously landed not exiting as expected. It is always slightly startling. Equally startling to me is how few passengers realize that a non routine event in the daily life of an aircraft-an aborted landing-had occurred.

Runway incursions in their various forms have always concerned me from an operating standpoint.

All of the ones I remember, the pilot briefly spoke on the intercom after climbing out and beginning the re-approach. Some added the reason, some didn't.
