RUSH - Need B, C & DRUSH - Need B, C & D Case: Air Traffic Controller

Case: Air Traffic Controller School (ATCS) Cost per Flight 100 ATCS provides training for future air traffic controllers. circling in a holding pattern until the last possible moment. One of the skills air traffic controllers need is the ability to sequence aircraft for landing purposes. The control (a) Develop a landing sequence that gives priority to ler decides who lands immediately and who goes into a those aircraft with the highest cost of slack time holding pattern. The following data are provided to you, (excess flying time multiplied by cost per minute of the student, to develop an acceptable landing sequence. flying time). For example, Flight 616's 18.75 minutes Any sequence that results in an aircraft not being sched of slack time (22 - 3.25) times $300 per minute uled to land before it runs out of remaining flying time is means that if Flight 616 does not land until its time unacceptable. The following aircraft are currently await is all used up, it incurs an extra flying cost of $5,625. ing your decision as to their landing sequence.
