LUAW Should Improve Traffic Flow at Orlando Executive
Traffic Flow Should Improve at Orlando Executive

Due to an increasing number of runway incursions two decades ago, such as the February 1991 nighttime collision between a USAir Boeing 737 and a Skywest Metroliner at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), the FAA severely restricted the number of airport control towers authorized to allow a departing aircraft to sit on the runway for any length of time. While safer, the procedure also reduces total traffic flow.
