Runway Occupancy Time (ROT) Workshop

16-17 October 2023, online

Runway occupancy time (ROT) plays an important role in the runway capacity for arriving and departing flights. ROT is generally measured from the time the aircraft touches down until the time it is clear of the runway. For departures, the time starts when the aircraft enters the runway and stops as soon as it is airborne. Factors that influence ROT include for example runway construction, weather and runway condition, aircraft type, and pilots experience.

On 16 and 17 October, the EU-China Aviation Partnership Project (APP) will organise an online workshop for European and Chinese stakeholders to exchange on the definitions, analyses and improvements of Runway Occupancy Time (ROT). The content of this workshop will be led by EUROCONTROL and ATMB, and aims to increase mutual understanding of Chinese and European practices concerning ROT.

Registration:

Representatives of the European aviation community who wish to attend online via Zoom: to register, please send your name, title and company name to lizhu.ren@eu-china-app.org no later than 14 October 2023.
