In this paper, the authors present a planning decision support tool for airport tower controllers. The tool assists controllers in the establishment of optimal departure sequences and the planning of initial climb phases. Airports are getting more and more congested with their available runway configuration as one of the most constraining factors. One of the possibilities to alleviate this congestion is to assist controllers in the planning process. In this paper, the authors focus on runway departure planning, but nevertheless show that this should not be a stand alone process. Department planning must be seen as part of an integrated and cooperative decision making environment.
