IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 21, Issue 8, Ver.1 (Aug. 2016) PP 22-38 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Effects of Land Use Changes on Airport and Flight Safety; A Study of Wilson Airport, Kenya Paul Muthee Kanyi. Dr. P.K Kamau Prof. C. Mireri Department of Environmental Planning and Management.School of Environmental Studies, Kenyatta, Nairobi, Kenya Abstract:-The aviation sector is one of the most important sectors for any country especially its ability to: promote interconnectedness within countries as well as between countries. However, the sector faces many risks caused by various emergencies and accidents associated with the sector, and much so in the precincts of airports. The impact of these accidents causes monumental social, economic and environmental consequences to victims. The exponential growth of the sector in the country calls for special attention by relevant stakeholders to devise strategies to address disaster preparedness issues. This is especially due to the fact that the country has already experienced a number of aviation disasters and mishaps related to the industry. Consequently, this study sought to assess the effects of land use changes on airport and flight safety at Wilson Airport. This study was carried out at Wilson airport located in Nairobi West. The qualitative design was applied in this study to analyze and describe the effects of land use changes on airport and flight safety in a rapidly growing aviation sector. A total of 216 respondents were targeted by the study (including 150 members of the community, 30 aviation regulators, 30 air operators and 6 service providers) out of which 195 responded (including 132 members of the community, 28 aviation regulators, 29 air operators and 6 service provider) giving a response rate of 90%. -
