Separation between departing aircrafts on the same track
Hi everybody,
I would like to know which minimum separation generally is used between two aircrafts departing the same runway on the same track (in Germany).
In ICAO Doc 4444 I only could find the following statements
"5.6.2 Two minutes are required between take-offs when the preceding aircraft is 74 km/h (40 kt) or more faster than the following aircraft and both aircraft will follow the same track"
(what if the preceding aircraft isn't 40kt or more faster?)
"5.6.1 One-minute separation is required if aircraft are to fly on tracks diverging by at least 45 degrees immediately after take-off so that lateral separation is provided (see Figure 5-35)."
I would be really thankful for any answer!
Greets and have a great weekend
Marcel
