Analysis of Aircraft Performance Significant for the Work of Air Traffic Controllers

Performanse zrakoplova predstavljaju sposobnosti, odnosno mogućnosti zrakoplova u smislu ostvarivanja određenih karakteristika izvedbe leta tijekom različitim fazama leta te u različitim uvjetima. Performanse zrakoplova ovise o brojnim čimbenicima, a razumijevanje utjecaja pojedinog čimbenika na performanse zrakoplova izuzetno je važno. Prije svega, navedeno se odnosi na pilote koji moraju poznavati i specifične performanse zrakoplova kojim upravljaju. Međutim, od izrazite je važnosti da i kontrolori zračnog prometa budu upoznati sa performansama zrakoplova kako bi ih mogli uzeti u obzir pri nadziranju i kontroliranju prometne situacije te prilikom izdavanja instrukcija. Cilj ovog rada je istaknuti značaj performansi za rad kontrolora zračnog prometa. Rad se bavi analitičkom i statističkom obradom performansi u različitim fazama leta, a za kontrolnu skupinu uzeta je skupina aviona koji su zastupljeni u simulatorskim vježbama u Laboratoriju za kontrolu zračne plovidbe Fakulteta prometnih znanosti Sveučilišta u Zagrebu.Aircraft performance represents the capabilities or possibilities of the aircraft in terms of achieving certain characteristics of flight during different stages of flight and in different conditions. Aircraft performance depends on a number of factors, and understanding the impact of each individual factor on aircraft performance is extremely important. First of all, this applies to pilots who must also know the specific performance of the aircraft they operate. However, it is important that air traffic controllers are also familiar with aircraft performance so that they can be taken into consideration when monitoring and controlling traffic situations and while issuing instructions. The aim of this paper is to highlight the importance of performance for the work of air traffic controllers. The paper is dealing with analytical and statistical analysis of aircraft performance in different stages of flight. For the control group it was taken a group of aircraft represented in simulation exercises in the Laboratory for Control of Air Navigation of the Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb
