## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: THE FLIGHT CREW OF BOTH AIRCRAFT INVOLVED WERE UNCLEAR OF THE MEANING OF THE MARKINGS USED IN THE "PENALTY BOX" HOLDING BAY CHARTS AND MANUALS SUPPLIED TO THE CREWS BY UNITED AIR LINES DID NOT ADEQUATELY REFLECT THE CHANGES IN THE MOST RECENT ADVISORY CIRCULAR THAT THE MARKINGS WERE BASED ON. THERE ARE PRESENTLY NO RESTRICTIONS ON THE TYPE OF AIRCRAFT THAT CAN USE THE HOLDING BAY UNDER NORMAL OPERATIONS. LARGE AIRCRAFT WOULD HAVE A VERY DIFFICULT TIME USING THE HOLDING BAY AND REMAINING BEHIND THE HOLD LINE.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
