Avwriter Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 The article below is a few years old, but still current. Anyone who uses the KATL for Tower 2011 may find it to be of interest in optimizing their taxi routes. Works like a charm when using an east flow. http://www.ifalpa.org/downloads/Level1/Safety%20Bulletins/Airport%20Issues/10SAB10%20-%20KATL%20taxi%20route%20changes.pdf Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avwriter Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Sorry. Something odd going on with the URL. Try this 10SAB10 - KATL taxi route changes.pdf . Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FS1TR Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Do you know the standard taxi procedures for the north side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avwriter Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 During an east flow, I believe they use a similar routing on the north side by means of taxiways B and V. However V is too narrow for use by aircraft with wingspan greater than 171 feet, so many aircraft just use C and D to cross to F. For west flows, which are far more common at KATL, traffic landing on 27L and 26R, will also frequently use the end-arounds (P and L/ V and F) depending on how far down the runway their landing roll takes them, and for which terminal they are bound.

Salad Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Nice find Andrew. I normally try and operate on westerlies, great when you get them all travelling smoothly. Interestingly I use as described above, that is for arrivals on 27L P or T - L / arrivals on 26R B-V-F (heart has been in throat a few times with cargoes sometimes doing the unexpected). Also watch for the short stoppers using C to exit. I move the deartures via E for 26L & M for 27R, seems to go ok. My next challenge is to try and sort them north or south departing dependant on destination but I don't think that will happen any time soon. :mrgreen: Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
