New York Area Control Facility/Metroplex Control Facility Vulnerability Analysis

Abstract

This report contains the results of an analysis of the impact of a New York Area Control Facility (ACF) or Metroplex Control Facility (MCF) failure under three different MCF configurations. This analysis was conducted using the National Airspace System Performance Analysis Capability (NASPAC) simulation model to assist ATR-310 and the Eastern Region on defining end-state configurations for the New York ACF/MCF. This report includes a discussion of the facilities and procedures involved in an ACF/MCF failure, the analysis approach, and the results of the analysis.
