Aircraft vectoring
Aircraft vectoring is the act of sorting out and sequencing departing and arriving aircraft by air traffic control at a major airport while maintaining separation at the same time. Vectoring consists of transmitting heading and altitude instructions to pilots in order to put them on specific navaid-to-navaid routes.
