In-line Stream Landings

This is an alternative to staggered landing procedures and requires the same runway width criteria as for other stream landings. The approach is identical to that for a staggered stream landing, other than the landing aiming points.

The lead aircraft will land on the side of the runway of intended ramp exit, thus designating the cold side of the runway.

All subsequent aircraft will land on the opposite side (hot side). Upon touchdown and when safe to do so, without unnecessary delay, each Wing will move to the cold side to complete landing roll out and runway exit, thus providing a clear, hot lane for following aircraft to land.

Before moving to the cold lane, pilots should check that the brakes are working. If a following aircraft has brake failure or another emergency, she or he should call [Callsign], Hot Lane, Hot Lane, whereupon preceding aircraft should expedite their crossing to the cold lane.
