In recent years, air traffic complexity analysis began to show its advantage in identifying characteristic of traffic situations. Based on previous research, an improved complexity map to intuitionally describe final traffic complexity is given in this paper. After constructing downwind to final leg inserting model, methods to locate available slots to finish conflict free turn from downwind to final leg have been provided. This achievement will be tested in human machine interface of ATC automation system to support controllers´ work. At the same time, new ideas are provided to reveal a regular pattern of air traffic system.
