Air Traffic Control
After learning how to utilize the Air Traffic Control Simulator, we were given a problem to solve. The following Criteria were involved:
- Planes must be at least three nautical miles apart
- Planes can never be closer than two nautical miles
- All planes must reach target within 3:54
How did we do it?
After running the simulation multiple times, we came up with a solution. This is what we did:
- Change the Flight Plan of American Airlines Flight 12 to MINAH-MOD
- Change the speed of Swiss Airlines Flight 23 to 540 KTS for one minute then back to 600 KTS
- Change the speed of United Airlines to 540 KTS for 2 minutes then back to 600 KTS
