This process is done outside the context of normal airport master planning because it only identifies the operational benefits or delay savings of capacity enhancement alternatives. This study considered the airport, its immediate airport terminal airspace, without regard for adjacent terminals and required en route supporting capacity. Several of the improvement initiatives require changes to airspace structure and procedures. This study did not evaluate the feasibility of accommodating these initiatives in the approach control or center airspace. It is possible that some procedures cannot be accommodated in the existing airspace environment, and their feasibility would be better considered in the ongoing redesign of the New York area airspace. The purpose is to provide decision-makers with this information. The findings of this capacity plan are not recommendations to take an action. They are data and information to be used to further consider improvements in the full planning context, where capital costs, airspace management needs, environmental costs, alternatives, and other appropriate factors help yield the best plan for the airport. For this reason, the Design Team recommends follow on studies to make these choices.
