Two recent simulations investigated air- and ground-based technologies for arrival management. In both studies professional air traffic controllers used prototype trajectorybased decision support tools to manage arrival flows that included airborne spacingequipped 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.
