or μa is equal to 52 arrivals per hour. If the delay criterion was that arrival
delays could not exceed 4 min then the runway capacity related to delay
would be 52 arrivals per hour.
It should be observed that an increase in capacity from 52 to 60 arrivals per
hour, a 15 % increase in capacity, results in a delay reduction of 2.4 min, a 60
% reduction in delay. This is typical at airports nearing saturation. Small
increases in capacity can result in significant decreases in delay.
