The potential encounter of wake vortices from a preceding flight is at the origin of the wake separation minima between aircraft on the final approach. The Dynamic Pairwise Wake Separation for Arrivals concept has been developed in order to safely reduce, when possible, wake separation minima between consecutive arrivals based on wake risk monitoring through the use of machine learning techniques.
