Effective Utilization of Air- and Ground-Based Technologies for Arrival Management (2007)
Two recent simulations investigated air- and ground-based technologies for arrival management. In both studies professional air traffic controllers used prototype trajectory- based decision support tools to manage arrival flows that included airborne spacing- equipped aircraft simulators flown by professional pilots. Taken together, the results illustrate how en route arrival flow conditioning, terminal-area spacing adjustments, and airborne merging and spacing capabilities may be used for effective arrival management in future high-traffic environments.
