A runway strip is defined as the surface surrounding a runway established or suitable for reducing the risk of damage to aircraft in the event of a runway excursion. This study aims to implement the RSARA and LRSARA models at an airport not meeting the runway strip dimension criteria required by standards for aerodrome physical characteristics. The airport is considering alternatives to secure the runway strip criteria such as the displaced threshold and runway length extension, which is predicted to reduce the runway excursion probability. As the results of this study, it was discovered that the risk probability increases with the increases of the displaced runway distance due to relatively reduced runway length. Therefore, a reduced runway length to meet runway strip criteria may not be the most effective risk mitigation alternative, and it should be acknowledged that such a strategy can harm aviation Safety.
