Narrative:
We were instructed to taxi to runway 31 from the gate in crp. We taxied on taxiway a which serves 2 runways (runway 31 and runway 35). As we approached runway 31, I looked for the hold short line and didn't see it. At that time, the tower called and said we had passed the hold short line. I believe this is a common occurrence in crp and could be corrected with better markings and by including a runway incursion hot spot circle on the airport diagram. Callback conversation with tower specialist revealed the following information: two specialist stated that crp airport personnel completed approximately 6 months ago an entire airport re-signage and surface marking update program to conform with new FAA requirements and guidelines. Specialist advised that a runway incursion in this area of the airport is not common due to the new and improved signage markings.

Title: CL65 FLC IS ADVISED BY CRP LCL CTLR THAT HE HAS CROSSED HOLD SHORT LINE FOR RWY 31. PIC CLAIMS INADEQUATE MARKINGS IS THE REASON.
Narrative: WE WERE INSTRUCTED TO TAXI TO RWY 31 FROM THE GATE IN CRP. WE TAXIED ON TXWY A WHICH SERVES 2 RWYS (RWY 31 AND RWY 35). AS WE APCHED RWY 31, I LOOKED FOR THE HOLD SHORT LINE AND DIDN'T SEE IT. AT THAT TIME, THE TWR CALLED AND SAID WE HAD PASSED THE HOLD SHORT LINE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN CRP AND COULD BE CORRECTED WITH BETTER MARKINGS AND BY INCLUDING A RWY INCURSION HOT SPOT CIRCLE ON THE ARPT DIAGRAM. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH TWR SPECIALIST REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: TWO SPECIALIST STATED THAT CRP ARPT PERSONNEL COMPLETED APPROX 6 MONTHS AGO AN ENTIRE ARPT RE-SIGNAGE AND SURFACE MARKING UPDATE PROGRAM TO CONFORM WITH NEW FAA REQUIREMENTS AND GUIDELINES. SPECIALIST ADVISED THAT A RWY INCURSION IN THIS AREA OF THE ARPT IS NOT COMMON DUE TO THE NEW AND IMPROVED SIGNAGE MARKINGS.
