new technique, Point Merge, for merging aircraft without vectoring in terminal areas (TMA), is modelled, and used in fast-time simulatio ns. Four arrival traffic streams are merged for landing on a single runway. A method for designing fast-time models of vectoring and Point Merge is proposed and validated using real-time simulation trajectories. Relative performances of fast-time simulations of t he corresponding models are compared. Interactions with departure traffic are also assess ed. Results show the Point Merge model reduces: mean controller task load (20±1%), the number of instructions to pilots (~30%), and fuel consumption (170±14 kg), compared with vectoring.
