The problem of determining a schedule for a traffic system such as an airline system that requires a minimum number of vehicles is formulated as a special-type assignment problem. Two proposed solution algorithms are presented and demonstrated on the past examples, for both fixed departure times and variable ones within a given time tolerance. The conclusion is that the algorithm can be applied to solve a large scale problem with considerable efficiency and simplicity. The method is then applied to Australian Domestic Airline System for flight scheduling (1969) and fleet planning (1980). (Author)
