Executive Summary Winter 2018 will be the second winter season where BHX Airport will be designated as Level 3 (Coordinated).
As in recent Winter season's the runway and terminal constraints are generally sufficient to accommodate the demand with only minor schedule adjustments required. Runway closures planned for November/December 2018 are the main driver of the more significant schedule adjustments made. The introduction of a revised Night Flying Policy effective from Winter 2018/19 has seen the introduction of additonal scheduling constraints within the Night Period. Whilst these additional constraints haven’t impacted the allocation process in any significant way during W18 Initial Coordination, the introduction of the QC 0.125 noise category has driven a 25% increase in allocated Night Movements in W18 versus W17 but remains within limits. Increase in QC allocation remains sufficiently within limits. Departure Limit 2330-0500L is almost fully allocated historically on a year round basis.
Runway Constraints The runway closure periods have generated all the remaining schedule adjustments. Airlines have been advised to update their waiting list requirements as improvements will not be possible.
Terminal Constraints
After hand-backs ( 15 August 2018) all demand have been accommodate within the runway and terminal limits.
Stand Constraints No Stand Constraint issues.
Night Constraints No Night Constraint issues.
Other Constraints - 92 adjustments have been made due to the declared runway closures.
Arr/Dep Turnaround Feasibility No Turnaround Feasibility issues.
