early vectoring off the SID/NPRs will in fact be one of the additional freedoms
Or not, as the case may be ?
Here's what the trial website says, somewhat confusingly:
"The use of this procedure means that departures using southerly departure routes can be redirected from the departure route earlier than is usual. The re-directed aircraft will mostly remain within the boundaries of the existing departure routes."
Any controllers care to comment on what they understand by this ?
Are we talking about vectoring aircraft left or right of the nominal SID track, but still keeping them within the 3km-wide NPR swathe ? Would that provide sufficient increased separation between consecutive departures on the same SID to allow an increase in the departure rate ?
