    This document discusses options for air traffic controllers (ATCOs) to manage arrival and departure traffic based on predictions of whether an arriving aircraft will perform a go-around. It outlines three time periods - after take-off clearance, after line-up but before take-off clearance, and before line-up clearance for the preceding departure. For each period, it describes whether the ATCO can give clearance and the expected impacts if the prediction is correct or incorrect. The goal is to reduce risks from wake turbulence or separation issues if the prediction is correct, while minimizing capacity losses if it turns out to be incorrect.

    TIME/POINT OF PREDICTION OPTIONS

    AFTER TAKE-OFF CLEARANCE FOR In this case, the departure is rolling and will take
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE off. The ATCO can thus use the time to brief the
    arriving aircraft for an alternative missed
    approach procedure which reduces
    wake/separation risks.
    AFTER LINE-UP CLEARANCE AND In this case, the ATCO can decide whether to give
    BEFORE TAKE-OFF CLEARANCE FOR a take-off clearance or not. In case he does not
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE give a take-off clearance, the ATCO has to
    command a go-around for the arriving aircraft,
    since the runway is blocked. The aircraft, which is
    predicted to perform a go-around thus would
    initiate the go-around based on the ATCOs
    instructions, without the departing aircraft in the
    sector. No wake/separation problems occur,
    however the departing aircraft’s take-off will be
    delayed until the aircraft performing the missed
    approach, which is flying on runway track, is
    vectored or has finished the standard missed
    approach procedure.
    BEFORE LINE-UP CLEARANCE OF In this case, the ATCO can decide whether to give
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE a line-up clearance or not. In case he does not
    give a line-up clearance, the arriving aircraft
    could continue the approach. In case the predicted
    go-around is performed, no knock-on effects of
    wake/separation encounters will occur.

    TIME/POINT OF PREDICTION OPTIONS


    AFTER TAKE-OFF CLEARANCE FOR In this case, the departure is rolling and will
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE take off. The ATCO can thus use the time to
    brief the arriving aircraft for an alternative
    missed approach procedure which reduces
    wake/separation risks.
    In case the prediction is wrong however, the
    arriving aircraft could perform the landing,
    since the runway is free.
    AFTER LINE-UP CLEARANCE AND In this case, the ATCO does not give a take-off
    BEFORE TAKE-OFF CLEARANCE FOR clearance, the ATCO has to command a go-
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE around for the arriving aircraft, since the
    runway is blocked. In case the prediction is
    wrong, and the arriving aircraft would have
    landed, a landing slot will not be used, resulting
    in a loss of capacity.
    BEFORE LINE-UP CLEARANCE OF In case the ATCO does not give a line-up
    PRECEDING DEPARTURE clearance, the arriving aircraft continues the
    approach. In case the prediction is wrong, the
    arriving aircraft can perform the landing. The
    downside of this option is that one gap will be
    lost for a departure, reducing the airports
    capacity.
