WEBVTT

00:00.240 --> 00:05.920
for

00:05.920 --> 00:07.920
normal formation departures of more

00:07.920 --> 00:09.920
than one aircraft . We use the 32nd

00:09.920 --> 00:12.320
spacing between those aircraft for Mido

00:12.330 --> 00:14.110
our minimum interval . Takeoff

00:14.110 --> 00:16.221
departures . We decrease that time to

00:16.221 --> 00:18.332
less than 30 seconds . What that does

00:18.332 --> 00:20.388
for us is allows us to get a greater

00:20.388 --> 00:22.610
number of aircraft airborne in the same

00:22.610 --> 00:24.554
takeoff window . They could be for

00:24.554 --> 00:24.530
anything . It could be a natural

00:24.530 --> 00:26.530
disaster coming . It could be a man

00:26.530 --> 00:27.530
made disaster

00:27.530 --> 00:35.010
way .

00:35.020 --> 00:37.900
For instance , last year we took off

00:37.900 --> 00:39.789
with all eight of our aircraft in

00:39.789 --> 00:41.760
formation . Uh , when you had 30

00:41.760 --> 00:44.190
seconds between every aircraft on ,

00:44.190 --> 00:46.246
then the time that the tower's gonna

00:46.246 --> 00:48.468
delay other aircraft landing because of

00:48.468 --> 00:50.690
that last one taken off . Uh , that's a

00:50.690 --> 00:52.912
significant time that the airport can't

00:52.912 --> 00:55.079
do any . Take officer arrivals . So it

00:55.079 --> 00:57.301
might be a simple thing of this helping

00:57.301 --> 00:56.250
them out with Tommy .

01:02.300 --> 01:02.870
Do you think
