  • Abstract
    • Aircraft count insufficient to predict controller workload under all conditions • TBX uses a simple framework to adjust the aircraft count according to variations of tractable and predictable primary and secondary complexity factors. • TBX factors were derived from air traffic personnel´s inputs. The factors were easy to understand and easy to act upon. • TBX was successfully used in multiple HITLs and provides promise to be a good additional metrics to aircraft count
