PLT IS CONCERNED WITH HIS ACR IDENT OF 'SPECIAL ARPTS.' PLT ALSO IDENTS A HOLD SHORT MARKING PROB AT TXWYS D; E; AND F AT HNL.

Narrative

THIS IS A SAFETY RPT/QUESTION AND IS NOT A SPECIFIC EVENT. 2 ITEMS: 1) IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND THE LIST OF SPECIAL ARPTS AS REFED IN THE FARS FOR RECENT EXPERIENCE. THIS MAKES IT EASY FOR A PLT GOING TO A NEW ARPT TO: 1) VIOLATE THE RECENT EXPERIENCE FAR; AND B) HAVE AN INCIDENT/ACCIDENT BY NOT BEING AWARE OF THE CONDITIONS REQUIRING THE SPECIAL ARPT DESIGNATION. COULD THERE BE SOMETHING ADDED TO THE APCH CHARTS FOR THESE ARPTS; EG; A SIGN WITH THE LETTER 'S' SURROUNDED INSIDE A BOX. 2) THE HOLD LINES AT HNL BTWN RWYS 4R/4L ARE CONFUSING. (TXWYS F/D/E?.) AFTER LNDG; A PLT SHOULD CLR THE RWY AND YET THE HOLD LINES PREVENT IT. SIMILARLY; AFTER CLRING THE RWY; THE PLT SHOULD NOT CROSS ANOTHER RWY WITHOUT A CLRNC; AND YET THE HOLD LINES AT HNL ALLOW THIS XING. I KNOW THEY ARE MARKED THIS WAY DUE TO THE MINIMAL SEPARATION OF THE RWYS; BUT THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY. FOR SOMEONE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE ARPT; THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: PLT SAID THAT AT ONE TIME THE MARKINGS WERE CORRECT. AT SOME POINT ARPT MAINT REPAINTED THE SIGNS AND REVERSED THEM. HE CONSIDERS THE CURRENT MARKINGS CONFUSING; AND A POSSIBLE SAFETY PROB.
