De Leege, A.M.P. (author), In 't Veld, A.C. (author), Mulder, M. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author)Tactical control during a closed-path Continuous Descent Operation stops the aircraft from following its optimized descent. To mitigate tactical control, air traffic controllers apply arbitrary large spacing buffers to account for the unpredictability of the aircraft trajectory from the controller’s point of view. A controller support tool is...conference paper 2011

De Jong, P.M.A. (author), In 't Veld, A.C. (author), De Leege, A.M.P. (author), Van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, M. (author)Amsterdam Schiphol Airport currently uses a Continuous Descent Approach during night time operations only, due to reduced runway capacity caused by unpredictable individual aircraft behavior. The Three-Degree Decelerating Approach (TDDA) has been developed to increase predictability and runway capacity by switching the sepa- ration task from Air...conference paper 2010
