Analytical Model for Enhancing the Adoptability of Continuous Descent Approach at Airports

Analytical Model for Enhancing the Adoptability of Continuous Descent Approach at Airports

Continuous Descent Approach (CDA) is the flight technique for aircraft to continuously descend from cruise altitude with an idle thrust setting and without level-offs, contrary to the staircase-like Step-down Descent Approach (SDA). Important for air transportation sustainability, using CDA reduces...
