Reduced Runway Occupancy.

Are there any pilots out there with a pioneering streak, an interest in Reduced Runway Occupancy, and who may have 15 minutes to spare with a Sim? There’s a proposed scheme, when landing, to give you ‘clear voice’ distance to go to the (next) exit. The ‘voice’ will give you, for example; ‘Rapid Exit 1,000 feet’ (metres). Exit 500 feet ----- Exit 200 feet. In operation there’s no change to the aircraft.

If anyone’s interested in giving it a go, and giving an opinion, I’ll post the very simple procedures. The system was assessed with a Sim some time ago (thanks to GN and JW if you read this ) and the results were far better than expected but I’d like to hear a broader view.
