Abstract
This paper develops a methodology for examining the airport airside operational performance, during unscheduled equipment outages, under the assumption that air traffic control procedures are used to compensate for the lack of available navigational e quipment. Airport performance level is the result of a combination of factors. When unscheduled navigational equipment outages occur, airports often rely on backups of the same equipment or on substitute equ ipment that can provide similar operational functio ns. If backups or substitute equipment are not availabl e, unscheduled outages can contribute to cancelled and re-routed flights, runway closures, and degraded ca pacity at an airport in general. This research use s empirical data to explore the influences of unsched uled Very High Frequency Omni-directional Range (VOR) outages on daily runway operations at San Francisco International Airport (SFO).
