The incidents include "wrong runway landings and takeoffs" and are "a top airport safety concern for the FAA." None of the incursions at Bush were considered severe, but two incursions at Hobby in 2010 and 2016 were designated as severe, meaning they could have led to a collision.

We're thinking faster, but the problem is that that's where errors occur, and if somebody isn't ready, willing, and able to stop the airplane and say, 'Tower, I need confirmation.
