Runway Boundary Sign

2. Runway Location Sign. This sign has a black background with a yellow inscription and yellow border,
as shown in FIG 2-3-32. The inscription is the designation of the runway on which the aircraft is located. These
signs are intended to complement the information available to pilots through their magnetic compass and
typically are installed where the proximity of two or more runways to one another could cause pilots to be
confused as to which runway they are on.
3. Runway Boundary Sign. This sign has a yellow background with a black inscription with a graphic
depicting the pavement holding position marking, as shown in FIG 2-3-33. This sign, which faces the runway
and is visible to the pilot exiting the runway, is located adjacent to the holding position marking on the pavement.
The sign is intended to provide pilots with another visual cue which they can use as a guide in deciding when
they are "clear of the runway."
