Questão 1

Questão

  • Fast time simulations, because it will not require the implication of air traffic controllers
  • Real time simulations, because it is faster than the other techniques for network analysis
  • Real time simulations, because it’s more accurate

Questão 2

Questão
In the United States, when there is a lack of capacity at a given airport and the capacity cannot be accommodated, a ground delay program (GDP) is defined because:
Responda
  • The time the passengers are in the air is maximized
  • Ground delay are preferred over air delay only due to their lower cost

Responda
