List of attributes
| Name | Data Type | Definition | |
|---|---|---|---|
| status | CodeStatusOperationsType | The operational status of an runway's arresting system movement area, as a category. For example: serviceable, unserviceable, closed, or work-in-progress. | |
| length | ValDistanceType | The overall length of a runway's arresting system, which consists of a series of devices used to stop an aircraft by absorbing its momentum. | |
| width | ValDistanceType | The physical width of a runway's arresting system, which consists of a series of devices used to stop an aircraft by absorbing its momentum. | |
| engageDevice | CodeArrestingGearEngageDeviceType | The type of device that is used to engage an aircraft upon landing on a runway in order to immediately stop the aircraft by absorbing its momentum. | |
| absorbType | CodeArrestingGearEnergyAbsorbType | The type of energy absorber by which a runway's arresting system rapidly dissipates the kinetic energy of a moving aircraft that engages the arresting system, bringing the aircraft to a stop. | |
| bidirectional | CodeYesNoType | An indicator of whether or not both runway directions utilize arresting gear which, consists of a series of devices used to stop an aircraft by absorbing its momentum. | |
| location | ValDistanceType | The distance from an identified runway's threshold to the runway's arresting system, which consists of a series of devices used to stop an aircraft by absorbing its momentum. |
