The Challenge

As part of the Brisbane New Runway Project Implementation Review, Brisbane Airport Corporation (BAC) are exploring options that would allow more aircraft to depart and land over Moreton Bay, minimising community impact.

What We Did

Plan Safe developed all operational material for a trial of Increased Tailwind Take Off And Landings At Brisbane Airport (YBBN), including:

• safety plan
• ATC and Aircraft draft operational procedures
• data monitoring criteria
• risk assessment
• safety case and supporting material

The Outcome

The trial will allow for an increased tailwind limit at Brisbane Airport, meaning that the overall volume of time that arrivals and departures will be able to operate simultaneously over the bay will be increased.
