Narrative:

We were cleared to taxi from the learjet hangar to runway 11R via taxiway D. We taxied past the sign that said approach runway 11R. I looked up and saw a single engine airplane fly overhead as it landed on runway 11R. The controller told us that we had past runway 11R and to taxi up to and hold short of runway 11L. We told tower that we were holding short of runway 11L and the controller told us to taxi into position and hold on runway 11L. Cleared for takeoff without any further conversation about the runway incursion. From where we crossed the approach end of runway 11R, we were approximately 500-1000 ft from the displaced threshold of runway 11R. The PF thought we were cleared to taxi to runway 11L and never thought about stopping at runway 11R. I did not catch it until we crossed the hold short line. Lack of communication by the crew and poor situational awareness lead to this incursion.

Title: LJ45 FLT CREW CROSSES RWY 11R WITHOUT CLRNC AS AN SMA LANDS ON RWY 11R AT TUS, AZ.

Narrative: WE WERE CLRED TO TAXI FROM THE LEARJET HANGAR TO RWY 11R VIA TXWY D. WE TAXIED PAST THE SIGN THAT SAID APCH RWY 11R. I LOOKED UP AND SAW A SINGLE ENG AIRPLANE FLY OVERHEAD AS IT LANDED ON RWY 11R. THE CTLR TOLD US THAT WE HAD PAST RWY 11R AND TO TAXI UP TO AND HOLD SHORT OF RWY 11L. WE TOLD TWR THAT WE WERE HOLDING SHORT OF RWY 11L AND THE CTLR TOLD US TO TAXI INTO POS AND HOLD ON RWY 11L. CLRED FOR TKOF WITHOUT ANY FURTHER CONVERSATION ABOUT THE RWY INCURSION. FROM WHERE WE CROSSED THE APCH END OF RWY 11R, WE WERE APPROX 500-1000 FT FROM THE DISPLACED THRESHOLD OF RWY 11R. THE PF THOUGHT WE WERE CLRED TO TAXI TO RWY 11L AND NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT STOPPING AT RWY 11R. I DID NOT CATCH IT UNTIL WE CROSSED THE HOLD SHORT LINE. LACK OF COM BY THE CREW AND POOR SITUATIONAL AWARENESS LEAD TO THIS INCURSION.
