A
runway 22.✓ Correct Answer
B
routing to runway 22.
C
taxiway 22.
Explanation
The sign shows yellow '22' on a black background with a yellow border, the format of a runway location sign. AIM 2-3-9 says its inscription is the designation of the runway on which the aircraft is located, so it confirms you are on Runway 22. A sign routing you toward a runway would be a direction or destination sign (black on yellow, with an arrow). Taxiways are identified by letters, not numbers.
