【 摘 要 】

Pilots may benefit from surveillance technology that enhances their ability to maintain pre-determined distances from other aircraft during initial and final approach. Avionics that provide a cockpit display of traffic information (CDTI) enable pilots to acquire, verify, establish, and maintain pre-defined spacing intervals from other aircraft. It is of interest to the Federal Aviation Administration to determine how the use of these displays influences safety, capacity, and efficiency. The second operational evaluation of ADS-B/CDTI provided an opportunity to evaluate procedural modifications needed to support operational approval for Approach Spacing and Visual Acquisition/Traffic Awareness applications.
