During Flex Deck Operations, the normal cyclic interval is reduced to what range of minutes?

In Flex Deck Operations, the normal cyclic interval is indeed reduced to a range of 40 to 60 minutes. This adjustment is made to optimize the flow of air traffic while ensuring safety and efficiency in operations. Flex Deck Operations adapt to varying traffic volumes and operational demands, allowing for quicker turnaround times and enhanced responsiveness to changing conditions. This range supports the need for increased air traffic handling capacity during peak periods, ensuring that capacity management aligns with the operational goals of the air traffic control center.

Maintaining the cyclic interval within this specified range allows controllers to effectively manage multiple aircraft arrivals and departures, reducing potential congestion and improving overall efficiency. Additionally, while other intervals provided in the options are outside this determined range, this particular range strikes a balance between efficiency and safety, reflecting the realities of air traffic management during Flex Deck Operations.
