  • Abstract
    The functioning of the national air traffic management system is postulated using aircraft operating economies and mission flexibility as the primary goals. The management functions of enroute separation, sequencing for landing, and spacing of aircraft are discussed in an environment of near universal area navigation capability and rapid discreet communications.
