5.9 Airport Traffic
This page is selectable from the
tab suite and allows you to control the appearance and
movement of up to 6 repeating and 2 non-repeating routes. These incidents are normally designed
to present the aircrew with a hazard, in the vicinity of the runway, during take-off or landing. They
may, additionally, be used to provide traffic scenarios in and around the airport.
5.9.1
Repeatable Routes
Repeatable Routes initialise a number of entities using the Separation time specified for the
runway the route uses. The separation is constant for any entities using that runway, if the
separation time is changed, any new entities created by the system will have the new time.
Select a row to load, clear or stop a repeatable route.
5.9.2
Non-Repeatable Routes
Non-Repeatable Routes either start when the scenario play button is pressed or when triggered
by an ownship event (see Play Trigger Structure). Select a row to load, clear or stop a non-
repeatable route.
5.9.3
Runway Touchdown Intervals

Intervals
Displays a popup menu to allow you to set touchdown intervals.
Selected intervals times are displayed for each runway.

Scenario Options
Ownship Priority
Ownship Priority is used when the ownship is taking off and can
be set to either Manual or Automatic. If in manual mode then the
instructor has to decide if the ownship has enough space to take-
off in respect to other landing aircraft. If in Automatic, the system
will temporarily suspend the creation of new landing entities to
give the ownship space to take-off. Once the ownship has taken
off, the normal creation at that separation will be resumed.
Runway For Gen
Routes
For airports with more than one runway (auto-generics or
specifics) the Runway for Gen Routes button allows all generic
routes (routes recorded at a generic airport, which can be used
anywhere) within a scenario to use an alternative reference
runway to the active runway. The button will only be active before
the scenario begins, as the routes cannot be altered once a
scenario has started.
