An A-SMGCS architecture and operational concept is presented that has been designed to prevent runway incursions while also improving operational capability. Results of a full-mission simulation using 18 airline pilots and six air traffic controllers are presented along with a description of flight testing to be performed at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. During the simulation, pilot test subjects executed multiple approaches followed by taxi to the gate in visibilities down to 150' using a synthetic vision display system. This system consists of a head-up display providing tactical guidance and a head-down moving map with position, traffic, and ATC instructions depicted to improve situational awareness in the flight deck. Runway incursion warnings were also generated in the flight deck based on surface traffic positions. Simulation scenarios modeled peak traffic conditions and included typical runway incursion events during both landing and takeoff roll. Results are presented as a function of visibility.
