Design Brief - Point Merge and EMA
Introduction
Before reading the following instructions, you should watch the following videos and examine the attached illustrations.
I have probably provided much more detail than required. The task is to simply draw an image of an airplane arriving at a busy airport with the path to the runway shown as an opaque line.
This information is provided to give some background of the subject and how this is being explained where it is currently happening overseas.
One illustration is required, however we will negotiate with the designer to provide a "close-in" view of the same illustration.

Airspace
The illustrations will be designed around “Class C” airspace and should show the vertical and lateral boundaries in silhouette.
Note the “upside down wedding cake shape“ as the lower boundary of the airspace gets lower to the ground as you get closer to the “Control zone” and airport which is in the centre.
Search words.. “ICAO Airspace Classification” “Point Merge” “ILS”
Requirements
The purpose of the drawing is to illustrate two key elements.
- Illustrate a Point-Merge procedure and how it connected to the arrival route.
- Illustrate RNP arrivals and departures and show how they can increase the capacity of the airspace.
The drawing will show jet aircraft both arriving and departing a busy capital city airport.
The illustrations will be in colour and 3D from the point of view of the aircraft in flight (from behind) with the city and airport in the distance. The aircraft will be at a high altitude, approaching the point where it begins it's descent to the runway.
The airplane in the foreground should be a Boeing 737, 787 or an Airbus A320. No branding.
The background will be a generic coastal capital city with the ocean to the right.
The background will show terrain, built up areas and a city skyscape, mountains to the left and should not be identifiable as a particular airport.
The arriving airport will be in the centre of the drawing operating two parallel runways.
The illustration will show other aircraft in various stages of arrival and departure, typical of a busy airport.
In front of the aircraft is the path of an arrival procedure that joins the entry point of a “Point-Merge” procedure which in turn, joins an “ILS Approach” on the centre line of the runway.
Each drawing should show a stream of aircraft (at various stages of arrival or departure) flowing to and from both runways.
A trail of aircraft (maybe 4 or 5) should be shown flowing to the runway approximately 10 miles apart, reducing to 3NM apart as they get closer to the runway. (Accuracy is not required)
Arrival paths will be differentiated with a blue centre line. Departure paths, with a red centre line.
The departure and arrival paths should comprise straight and curved segments.
A departure path be shown as crossing over the arrival path on one or two several occasions as shown in the Oslo video.
Where appropriate, departure paths and arrival paths will be shown connecting to the cruise level enroute to another airport.
Both the arrivals and departure paths will be bounded by a silouette of a box (about 3.5KM wide and about 500ft deep (The depth is for illustration purposes only) (see here, here and here) with the aircraft in the centre of the box.
A second 3D drawing will be a close-up showing the entire “Point Merge” procedure, with several aircraft in level flight on the “arc” of the approach, leaving the arc of the approach (on descent) and one established on final approach of the “ILS” about to land to both runways (staggered in relationship to each other).
The drawing should also show aircraft just airborne on departure and further along the departure climb, aircraft on the taxiways and parked at the gate of terminals.
Note: because this is a technical illustration, labeling of elements will be communicated to the successful designer.
