Abstract: A method for evaluating landing conditions at an airport is provided. The method obtains, by an avionics system onboard a first aircraft, aircraft position data associated with a plurality of aircraft located within a range of the airport; and computes a terminal congestion coefficient for the airport, based on the aircraft position data, wherein the terminal congestion coefficient indicates a level of air traffic within the range of the airport.
