Real time air traffic simulations of a terminal maneuvering area scenario were performed. It was assumed that most of the approaching aircraft use 4D-procedures. Different traffic mixes of 4D-/non-4D-aircraft were investigated. Results indicate that the future 4D environment will be based on an improved communication, navigation, and surveillance system of high accuracy which includes data link components. This system may not necessarily work on a satellite basis. Special features of the 4D environment will be a strategic and tactical control concept together with a high degree of automation. These prerequisites provide for the ability to fly idle descent profiles on accurate horizontal tracks. Holdings will be avoided. Separation will not be a critical factor. Landing rate improves.
