In that notice, the FAA announced it was preparing a computer Administration, 800 Independence simulation of a capacity-reducing event Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591. VerDate jul<14>2003 16:27 Mar 22, 2005 Jkt 205001 PO 00000 Frm 00112 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 using Chicago O’Hare International Airport as a model. The stated purpose of the simulation was to evaluate the effectiveness of different delayavoidance strategies that may be employed by the FAA and its customers in handling a capacity-reducing event. The FAA scheduled the simulation for July 13–14, 2003, and issued a letter of invitation to the major airlines operating at O’Hare Airport, and to all major industry groups. The simulation was built around an actual capacityreducing event that occurred at O’Hare Airport on March 17, 2004, when a ground delay program was implemented at the airport for 11 hours because of a snowstorm. The simulation was designed to allow carriers to review their data for that date, and compare it to the results achieved during the simulation. This document summarizes the simulation that was conducted on July 13–14, 2004. Summary Participants in the simulation included seven airlines, two trade groups, and FAA and DOT personnel. The seven airlines represented 96% of the flights into O’Hare Airport. The participants first reviewed the March 17th operation at O’Hare Airport before proceeding to the simulation. In the first simulation scenario, the airlines had entered their date 12 hours in advance, without sharing their information with any other carriers. Based on the data entered in the software, the carriers were able to accommodate 93% of their passengers on their own airline. A factor impacting this result was the airlines’ lack of access during the simulation to the passenger and planning resources available at their Operation Centers. This skewed the number of nonaccommodated passengers, because the Operation Centers have resources available to accommodate their passengers, including busing and the use of larger aircraft. The next simulation reduced the airport arrival rate below the actual rate incurred on March 17, 2004 in order to explore the concept of inter-airline communication. Again the airlines affirmed their ability to accommodate passengers through mechanisms available today, using their existing online and interline flight interruption procedures. Conclusions The simulation did identify modifications to the ground delay program software that would enhance operations, such as earlier notification E:\FR\FM\23MRN1.SGM 23MRN1
