Operations Analysis of Locating High-Speed Runway Exits

The purpose of high-speed runway exits is to increase the capacity of a runway. This can be accomplished if the exits are properly located along the runway and other operational conditions are met. These conditions are discussed and runway operation is described. A probabilistic model describing the landing of aircraft is developed and used to locate the exits optimally. Benefits from the use of high-speed exits are presented in terms of increased landing capacity, decreased service time, and decreased delay.
