Afin de ne pas diminuer la capacité d'un aéroport métropolitain, les adacs devraient être séparés, dans la mesure du possible, des avions classiques. Pour ce faire, il convient d'aménager, pour les adacs, une piste distincte pourvue d'aides distinctes d'approche et d'atterrissage pour les conditions IFR. 2, record 2, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20SALS
