1 Airport II- Airport. II-1 Definitions System capacity: Ability efficiently process the transported units. Aircrafts Passengers Baggage cargo Public access facilitation Runway Taxiway Gate Terminal Building Balanced Design Car parking b- Factors affecting R/W 1. Environmental Factors: Visibility: In poor visibility, longer separation & R/W occupancy time also under marginal crosswinds R/W will not be used. VFR vs. IFR Ceiling <= 1000 ft &OR Visibility <= 3 miles Runway Surface Condition: In wet/slippery R/W: longer deceleration & R/W occupancy time. In case of snow, the R/W should be closed. Winds: Strong Cross/tail Winds. Noise Abatement Requirements: Use could be restricted for some R/Ws during certain periods of the day. Dr. Eng. Omar Osman 1

2 2. ATC Factors: Regulations for min VL, HL & lateral separation (Operation Safety) Arrival Arrival 2~5 nautical mile depending on ACFT size (2 Arrivals) Arrival Departure Departure Arrival 2 nautical mile between Departure and following Arrival T3.1 Departure Departure 60~120 sec. depending on ACFT Size. Example: Landing speed= 165 mph Min Separation= 3 nmi = 3*6076=18228 ft = 18228/(165*5280/3600) = 75 sec. R/W Occupancy time = 25 sec. Sequencing ( FIFO, Speed-Class, Size,.) 3. Demand Characteristics: AC Size, Speed, Maneuverability, Braking Distance, and Pilot Technique Vortex Approach Speed Fast Approach Slow Approach Landing time R/W Occupancy Time -150 knot for Heavy ACFT -100 knot for Small ACFT Landing time (Touchdown Speed) Touch-and-go operations (landing then T/O without complete stop) = 2 operations one AC doing touch & go, can produce 16 mov./hr -i.e. 1 T/O, 14 T&G, 1L -Seldom under IFR Conditions % Arrivals (% Arrival + % Departure = 100%) AC mix A,B,C,D Mix Index= %C+3%D T3-2 Dr. Eng. Omar Osman 2

Delay/AC Acceptable Delay Level (1~4 min) Ultimate Practical (op/hr) Demand (op/hr) IFR VFR Peak Demand (op/hr) * Operation at Ultimate capacity Increase Delay Reduce Airport Competitively (Low LOS) * Demand should not be more than practical capacity for so long (e.g. 30hrs/yr) Avg. AC Delay (min) Peaked Schdl Moderatly Schdl Uniform Schdl Demand / Ratio d- Determination 1. Preliminary R/W - for Planning Purposes -for Comparing Airports - Airport Appraisal - Comparing Passenger Demand with capacity (evaluation) See Table 3.3 (Config., MI, VFR/IFR) Hourly & Annual capacity (considering delay) ASV Check demand < ASV (otherwise too much delay & low LOS) Dr. Eng. Omar Osman 4
