The terminal modules which may not be separated from each other in a precise manner and which may be functionally independent may also be used from the terminal to the adjacent terminal (inner-outer-line) from the other terminal in order to prevent construction during the expansion and operation of the modules at the junctions. It is the main principle that flexible use is allowed. With the creation of an entirely different terminal, which envisages an open system in the future, this system considers the unpredictable development of air traffic volume and air traffic today.
