• Abstract:
  The impact of investment at an individual airport is felt through-out the National Airport System by reduction of delays at other airports in the the system. A GPSS model was constructed to simulate the propagation of delays through a nine-airport system. The model is largely based on, and calibrated to, scheduled air carrier itineraries through the system. It calculates statistics and costs for landing, takeoffl, and gate arrival delays.
