61 6 Air Mode Simulation Module 6.1 Overview The air simulation module simulates the air leg of a full door-to-door passenger trip generating the energy and emissions intensities of the air leg of the passenger trip. The air module is unlike the other modal simulation modules as it does not ‘simulate' the movement of an aircraft but uses energy intensity characterization data that are published each year by the US Bureau of Transportation Statistics [Research and Innovation Technology Administration, Bureau of Transportation Statistics, 2013]

62 The ‘Air-Simulation' worksheet simulates the energy intensity of an air mode trip using a default distribution of aircraft types typical of the trip leg distances. A user can specify a single aircraft type or alternative mix of aircraft types.
