Parallel landing SFO

[csotgr]

Parallel landing is something that can be done and is practice at San Francisco but when I tried the game ended. SFO's parallel runways are just barely separated by the distance necessary to allow simultaneous operations. The minimum for simultaneous operations by any aircraft is 700 feet between runway centerlines and both sets of SFO's parallels are separated by slightly more than that. With the distance between runways you can have a take off or landing on both runways at the same time in any combination. Check parallel landing SFO on youtube for actual videos

What I think could be a good idea is as soon as the plane is assigned a runway to land the box could disappear leaving the plane to land.

Then there would no issues of the planes touching for landing or taking off.

Same problem here. Kinda no need for parallel runway scenarios if you're not going to allow us to use them.

The minimum distance between the runway to alowed simultanious opération is 700 meters not feets. At SFO the separation is around 230 meters.
There are some case where it's alow but it's rare.
