AO-0325 — Reduction of Wake Turbulence Risk considering Acceleration of Wake Vortex Decay in Ground Proximity

Thanks to acceleration of wake vortex decay in ground proximity (e.g. with decay enhancing devices), the risk for a follower aircraft to a wake encounter generated by the lead aircraft is decreased. This may allow an increase in safety and may increase potential capacity gains of wake turbulence advisory systems (RECAT2 or WDS).

Rationale
According to statistics, the highest risk to encounter wake vortices prevails in ground proximity. Consequently wake vortex behaviour in ground proximity mostly impedes reduced separations by dynamic wake turbulence advisory systems (RECAT2 or WDS).
