What means by AIRPPORT An airport is a facility where passengers connect from ground transportation to air transportation.

What means by AIRPPORT An airport is a location where aircraft such as airplanes, helicopters take off and land. Aircraft may also be stored or maintained at an airport. An airport should have runway for takeoffs and landings, buildings such as hangars and terminal buildings. A military airport is known as an airbase or air station.

Definition AIRFIELD is an area where an aircraft can land and take off, which may or may not be equipped with any navigational aids or markings. Many grass strips are also designated as airfields.

What is Aerodromes? AERODROMES Chapter 2 What is Aerodromes? AERODROMES A defined area on land or water (including any buildings, installations and equipment) intended to be used either wholly or in part for the arrival, departure and surface movement of aircraft.

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport

Airport History The world's first airport was built in 1928 at Croydon near London (England). It was the main airport for London till it was closed down in 1959, after the World War II. It is now open as a visitor centre for aviation.

Major Groups of Activities in AVIATION AIRPORT Airlines Regulation Air Traffic Services

Airlines An organization that provides scheduled flights for passengers or cargo. AIRLINES INCLUDE SCHEDULED AIRLINES AND NON-SCHEDULED AIRLINES AIRLINES CAN BE DOMESTIC, INTERNATIONAL OR FOREIGN AIRLINES CAN BE PASSENGER CARRIERS, FREIGHT CARRIERS OR BOTH PASSENGER AND FRIGHT CARRIERS MOST AIRLINES CARRY BOTH PASSENGERS AND FREIGHT AIRLINES CAN BE OWNED BY GOVERNMENT, GOVERNMENT OWNED COMPANIES, PRIVATE COMPANIES OR COMPANIES JOINTLY OWNED BY GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE ENTITIES AIRLINES CAN BE OWNED BY ONE AGENCY BUT CAN BE MANAGED BY ANOTHER ENTITY

AIR TRAFFIC SERVICES Air traffic services help in navigating aircraft while landing, taking off, flying in the air, over-flying any country, taxing on the ground and parking They provide a discipline in the air and also on the ground and maintain safety The services are provided by using modern equipment including radars

REGULATION AND POLICIES The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Policy issues - ministry of civil aviation, planning commission Safety – main responsibility is with dgca Security- main responsibility is with the bureau of civil aviation security Economic – main responsibility is with moca and proposed airports economic regulatory authority

The International Civil Aviation Organization The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), an agency of the United Nations, codifies the principles and techniques of international air navigation and fosters the planning and development of international air transport to ensure safe and orderly growth. The constitution of ICAO is the Convention on International Civil Aviation, drawn up by a conference in Chicago in November and December 1944, and to which each ICAO Contracting State is a party. According to the terms of the Convention, the Organization is made up of an Assembly, a Council of limited membership with various subordinate bodies and a Secretariat. The chief officers are the President of the Council and the Secretary General.

International Airports Types of Airports International Airports Regional Airports Domestic

International Airports An international airport has direct service to many other airports. Handle scheduled commercial airlines both for passengers and cargo. Many international airports also serve as "HUBS", or places where non-direct flights may land and passengers switch planes. Typically equipped with customs and immigration facilities to handle international flights to and from other countries. Such airports are usually larger, and often feature longer runways and facilities to accommodate the large aircraft. (FBO, MRO etc..) Larger airports may have Fixed Base Operator (FBO) services, seaplane docks and ramps, air traffic control, passenger facilities such as restaurants and lounges, and emergency services. In some jurisdictions, the term airport is used where the facility is licensed as such by the relevant government organization (e.g. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Transport Canada). Elsewhere the distinction is merely one of general appearance. Yet other areas define an airport by its having the necessary customs offices etc expected of a port, though the more general term is airport of entry. Larger airports for airline flights generally have paved runways 2,000 m (6,600 ft) or longer. In the United States, the minimum dimensions for dry, hard landing fields are defined by the FAR Landing And Takeoff Field Lengths. These include considerations for safety margins during landing and takeoff. Heavier aircraft require longer runways. The longest public-use runway in the world is at Qamdo Bangda Airport in China. It has a length of 5,500 m (18,045 ft). The world’s widest paved runway is at Ulyanovsk Vostochny Airport in Russia and is 105 m (344 ft) wide.

Domestic Airports A domestic airport is an airport which handles only domestic flights or flights within the same country. Domestic airports don't have customs and immigration facilities and are therefore incapable of handling flights to or from a foreign airport. These airports normally have short runways which are sufficient to handle short/medium haul aircraft.

Regional Airports A regional airport is an airport serving traffic within a relatively small or lightly populated geographical area. A regional airport usually does not have customs and immigration facilities to process traffic between countries. Aircraft using these airports tend to be smaller business jets or private aircraft (general aviation).

Regional Airports Louisiana Regional Airport, US Smaller or less-developed airports — which represent the vast majority — often have a single runway shorter than 1,000 m (3,300 ft). Many small airports have dirt, grass, or gravel runways, rather than asphalt or concrete. As of 2006, there were approximately 49,000 airports around the world, including 14,858 in the US., the U.S. having the most in the world

Airport Ownerships Most of the world’s airports are owned by government bodies who then lease the airport to private corporations who oversee the airport’s operation. For example, In Malaysia, airport are authorized by Malaysia Airport Holding Berhad (MAHB). MAHB responsible is to focus on the operations, management and maintenance of Malaysia airports. Most of the world’s airports are owned by local, regional, or national government bodies who then lease the airport to private corporations who oversee the airport’s operation. For example, BAA Limited (BAA) operates seven of the commercial airports in the United Kingdom, as well as several other airports outside of the UK. Germany’s Frankfurt Airport is managed by the quasiprivate firm Fraport. In the US and Canada, commercial airports are generally operated directly by government entities or government-created airport authorities (also known as port authorities). MAHB is the operator and manager of Malaysia's 39 airports which comprise international (5), domestic (15) and Short Take-Off and Landing (STOL)-(19) ports. The core activities include the management, operation and maintenance as well as development of airports, with primary importance being placed on the operational efficiency, safety and security of passengers, cargo and aircraft operations. Besides its core business activities, MAHB has in its corporate structure, a few subsidiary companies to offer a range of aviation and non-aviation related products and services.

How are airports managed? There are several divisions to manage each sub organizations at an airport. These divisions including Airport operation services (security, fire & rescue & maintenance) Airport planning and development (engineering) Airport financial (revenues, business) The primary objective of each division is to ensure the operational efficiency, safety and security of passengers, cargo and aircraft operations.

Airport Structure Landside Airside Airports are divided into landside and airside areas. Landside areas include parking lots, public transportation train stations, tank farms and access roads. Airside areas include all areas accessible to aircraft, including runways, taxiways, ramps and tank farms. Access from landside areas to airside areas is tightly controlled at most airports. Passengers on commercial flights access airside areas through terminals, where they can purchase tickets, clear security, check or claim luggage and board aircraft through gates. The waiting areas which provide passenger access to aircraft are typically called concourses, although this term is often used interchangeably with terminal. The area where aircraft park next to a terminal to load passengers and baggage is known as a ramp (or "the tarmac"). Parking areas for aircraft away from terminals are called aprons. Airports can be towered or non-towered, depending on air traffic density and available funds. Due to their high capacity and busy airspace, many international airports have air traffic control located on site. Airports with international flights have customs and immigration facilities. However, as some countries have agreements that allow travel between them without customs and immigrations, such facilities are not a definitive need for an international airport. International flights often require a higher level of physical security, although in recent years, many countries have adopted the same level of security for international and domestic travel. Modern engineers and architects are developing "floating airports" which could be located several miles at sea and which would use designs such as pneumatic stabilized platform technology.
