Abstract This handbook is a support manual for prototype air traffic flow control automation system developed for the FAA's Systems Command Center. The system is implemented on a time-sharing computer and is designed to provide airport traffic load predictions and flow control support. The System Support Manual is designed for use by an experienced computer programmer. It contains instructions on performing the monthly AIRS data base updating including the Official Airline Guide data tape processing, the merging with the existing data base and the maintenance of the associated supporting data files. The manual describes the duties associated with monitoring nightly file checking and failsafe programs to assure data base integrity. The daily processing and troubleshooting of the system's usage records are also described. Other support functions involving data base maintenance are presented.
