Abstract

This paper introduces a new airspace design method for continuous climb operation (CCO). The optimization problem is formulated as Mixed-Integer Linear Program (MILP) to maximize the upper limits of altitude on the waypoints to facilitate continuous climb for aircraft. In the proposed method, the interactions with other flight procedures are considered as well as various aircraft flight performances. The proposed method is applied to one of the departure procedures of Incheon International Airport (ICN) to demonstrate its performances.
