S bends

Permit spacing of arrival traffic, from the 3 gates (?).... holds are the primary timing options, s bends are the fine tuning...

ACARS is not a mandatory equipment fix, so to penalise non aircraft, might be counter productive.

As previously posted, really large airport 15km down road... with runways that comply (when finished) with ICAO spacing allowing multiple use...with no major residental areas at both ends, and only one rubbish dump.
