A Republic Airways Embraer ERJ-175 on behalf of American Airlines, registration N401YX performing flight AA-4736 from Washington National,DC to Raleigh/Durham,NC (USA), was taxiing for departure from runway 01 along taxiway J and still on ground frequency was cleared to cross runway 04 on taxiway J straight ahead of them, the crew correctly read back that taxi and crossing clearance, however, turned left onto taxiway F and crossed runway 01 instead.

About 10 seconds earlier a United Airbus A319-100, registration N819UA performing flight UA-2003 from Washington National,DC to Chicago O'Hare,IL (USA), had received takeoff clearance from runway 01 and was accelerating on the runway, when tower instructed the aircraft to cancel takeoff clearance. The crew rejected takeoff at very low speed (below 20 knots over ground) about 600 meters/1980 feet short of the intersection of runway 01 with taxiway F.

The Airbus vacated runway 01 via taxiway A about 520 meters/1700 feet short of the intersection with taxiway F, returned to the holding point runway 01 and departed about 8 minutes after the rejected takeoff.

The Embraer subsequently taxied to the holding point runway 33 and departed about 15 minutes later.

The FAA opened an investigation into the occurrence and has called for a safety summit as result of the recent frequent similiar occurrences.
