Due to recent increases in delays to aircraft at major airports, several concepts for increasing airport capacity have gained impetus. One of these concepts is the reduction of longitudinal separation between certain classes of aircraft in Instrument Meteorological Conditions on final approach. A demonstration program for this concept has been developed by Air Traffic Service of the Federal Aviation Administration. Prior to the start of that program, it was necessary to ascertain that runway occupancy times were low enough (below 50 seconds) to allow the decreased separations. To that end, runway occupany time data were collected at Los Angeles, San Franciso, Atlanta, and Dallas-Fort Worth airports.
