The EPA suggested that a possible means of reducing emissions of CO, HC, and NO at airports would be to have aircraft use fewer engines while taxiing to and from runways and the terminal area. The remaining engines would be operated at higher thrust settings to maintain taxi speed. Emission reductions would result from a lower total aircraft emission rate with fewer engines operating and from improved performance from the other engines as they were moved higher in power setting. The William B. Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport was chosen as the test site since it best satisfied all the criteria. The field test of the engine shutdown strategy at the Atlanta airport was, at best, inconclusive. Although no operational problems were encountered, no air quality improvement correlated to aircraft activity changes was observed. Observed air quality data was of questionable validity due to the short test period, equipment difficulties, and the shortage of jet fuel in the midst of the program. The Argonne Airport Vicinity Air Pollution (AVAP) model did not correlate well with the observed air quality data collected during the field test. The problems with the observed data make a conclusive statement about the model validity impossible.
