Abstract

AbstractThe estimation of runway capacity is important in airport planning and operational analysis. Standard procedures for capacity determination typically assume that there is no constraint on aircraft operations and do not provide good estimates when constraints exist. This paper presents a study of runway capacity at Singapore Changi Airport in which local operational constraints are taken into account. In addition, the impacts on capacity due to marine vessel crossings in a shipping channel near the airport, and the timing for implementation of simultaneous, independent instrument approach procedures are also investigated. The levels of annual aviation demand that could be served without excessive delays to aircraft under various operating scenarios are estimated.
