The flexibility of The Airport Machine simulation model is demonstrated by its
ability to handle special situations that exist on many airports such as
deicing facilities. Vancouver (YVR), and Stockholm's Arlanda (ARD) are used to
illustrate these features. (Double click a slide to enlarge it, and then press
