Runway incursions can happen to pilots of any experience level and at any airport—staying “current” on ground operations is essential. The latest DVD from Sporty’s will help you do that, going far beyond the basics in the AIM. It offers dozens of real world strategies for safer taxiing, a thorough review of airport signs and markings, and some sobering case studies of real accidents. Watch Pilot’s Guide to Runway Safety and you might be surprised by what you don’t know.
Includes:
•State-of-the-art 3D animations and real world examples of all major airport signs, markings and lighting, and exactly what each one means
•Learn how to use all available resources during the flight planning phase to become familiar with an airport and develop a taxi plan
•See the step-by-step process of arriving and departing at both towered and non-towered airports and learn what measures you can take to avoid common mistakes
•Preview new technologies being implemented at some of the busiest airports to help detect aircraft and vehicles, and improve runway safety
•Special interactive features, including on-screen taxi scenarios that test your knowledge of proper taxi procedures
This informative video offers useful tips for pilots new and old alike, and will serve as a valuable reference in the future. (57 min.)

I feel at $30 plus shipping this product is overpriced.
Production values are good but I expected to see more real-world, in-cockpit difficult taxi situations. I don't think I'll be paying for any more single subject videos like this.
