07.4 Resolution Techniques
Training Objective
To apply appropriate techniques to resolve conflicts safely and efficiently.
Key Knowledge
- Lateral resolution
- Vertical resolution
- Speed control
Operational Application
Controllers shall:
- Select the most effective resolution method
- Apply minimum required intervention
- Avoid creating secondary conflicts
1. Overview
Conflict resolution involves altering aircraft trajectory to maintain separation.
2. Core Content
2.1 Lateral Resolution
- Heading changes
- Effective for most conflict types
2.2 Vertical Resolution
- Level changes
- Useful for opposite direction and crossing conflicts
2.3 Speed Control
- Fine adjustments
- Supports sequencing and spacing
3. Procedures
3.1 Selection of Technique
- Based on conflict type and geometry
- Consider downstream impact
4. Standards
- Resolution shall ensure separation is maintained
5. Notes
- Overcomplicated solutions increase workload
