REMINDER AND FINAL PROGRAM
of the 5th WakeNet Workshop
on
Wake Turbulence and the Airport Environment
to be held at Deutsche Flugsicherung, DFS Academy,
Langen, Germany
on
Monday April 2 2001, from 10.00 - 18.00 h
Tuesday April 3 2001, from 8.30 – 15.00 h
WakeNet is a Thematic Network of the 4th FrameWork Aeronautics Programme of the European Commission. Its aim is to stimulate information exchange between all those concerned with safety aspects and research for wake vortices. This 5th Workshop of WakeNet follows previous workshops on 'European Wake Vortex Research' (December 1998), 'Prediction of Far Field Wake Vortex Location and Decay' (October 1999), 'Measurement Techniques for Wake Vortices' (May 2000), and 'Wake Vortex Encounter' (October 2000)
The program committee for this Workshop can offer you a very attractive Workshop with contributions from experts of Europe, US and Russia. Attached you will find the complete program.
It is still possible to participate to this workshop by filling in the attached form. You should make your own hotel arrangements, and relevant information is also attached.
For further details look at: http://aton.cerfacs.fr/~wakenet)
The organising committee is looking forward to your participation. If you have questions please contact Bram Elsenaar by E-mail (elsenaar@nlr.nl) or telephone (+33 562 110 977) or any another member of the program committee.

DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH
Arriving by car:
From the North and South
Leave the motorway A5 at the exit "Langen/Mörfelden". Drive along the B486 in the direction of "Langen/Egelsbach". Shortly before you reach Langen, the road widens to include two lanes for each direction. Get into the left lane and drive past the exit "Langen Stadtmitte" in a left-hand bend. Leave the B486 after approximately 400 meters and follow the sign "Flugsicherung/ATC". Turn right immediately before the beginning of the 30 km/h speed zone into the cul-de-sac of Paul-Ehrlich-Straße, which directly leads to the Air Navigation Services Park
From the East and West
From the motorway A3 take the A661 at the "Offenbacher Kreuz" (Offenbach junction) in the direction of Darmstadt and exit at "Langen". Drive in the right track of the exit lane and then turn right. "Flugsicherung/ATC" is already signposted at this stage. Then get into the left lane which leads straight on. After you have crossed the railway tracks on a high bridge (after approximately three kilometers), leave the B486. Keep on following the sign "Flugsicherung/ ATC" and turn right immediately before the beginning of the 30 km/h speed zone into the cul-de-sac of Paul-Ehrlich-Straße, which directly leads to the Air Navigation Services Park.
At the entrance of the Air Navigation Services Park, there is a short-term car park and an entrance lodge. You will receive further information there about where to park your vehicle.
Arriving by bus and train:
Commuter train (S-Bahn)
Take one of the following commuter trains to Langen station in order to reach the DFS Air Navigation Services Park: S3 (Bad Soden - Frankfurt central station (Hbf) - Langen - Darmstadt), S4 (Kronberg - Frankfurt central station (Hbf) - Langen). Travel time from Frankfurt central station (underground): 23 minutes
Regionalexpress trains
All "Regionalexpress (RE)" trains on the Frankfurt-Mannheim line stop at Langen station. Trains operate every hour. Travel time from Frankfurt central station: 9 minutes
Trains from Frankfurt Airport
Take the S8 or S9 commuter train to Frankfurt central station (travel time:10 minutes) and change to the S3 or S4 to Langen or take the "Regionalexpress" train to Langen station.
The DFS Air Navigation Services Park is 200 metres from the "Bundesbauten Langen" bus stop. Take bus no. 202 or 205 from Langen station to Neurott. Bus no. 202 leaves from the station shortly after the arrival of the S4 commuter train. The bus operates every 30 minutes. Travel time from Langen station: 4 minutes.
Walking from Langen station
Take the exit "Langen-West" and follow the railway tracks to the north. Cross the bypass road under the bridge and follow the Paul-Ehrlich-Straße.Walking time: 15 to 20 minutes
Taxi from Frankfurt Airport to DFS Langen
The fare will be around 45 DM, travel time will be 15-20 minutes.
