Abstract:

Wake turbulence considerations currently restrict the use of parallel runways less than 2500 ft (762 m) apart.

However, wake turbulence is not a factor if there are appropriate limits on allowed longitudinal pair spacings

and/or allowed crosswinds. The tradeoffs between longitudinal spacing and crosswind, needed to prevent wake

encounters, are assessed by modeling and by examining existing wake lateral transport data from O’Hare and

Dallas/Ft. Worth airports at distances of 1500–3000 ft (457–914m) from runway threshold.
