  • 2.6 Air Transportation
    2.6 AIR TRANSPORTATION Air transportation on Cape Cod is provided primarily by airplane out of six airports. Other air transportation modes, such as helicopter and glider, serve either non-civilian or recreational purposes. Public air transportation consists mostly of shuttle service by small aircraft from Hyannis and Provincetown airports. For Cape Cod travelers, air service provides an important link from Cape Cod to the Islands, Boston, and the world beyond. 2.6.1 CAPE COD AIRPORTS Six airfields and airports serve Cape Cod as a base for air transportation (Table 1). An airfield is an area of land from which aircraft operate. An airport is specifically defined as an airfield with paved runways and maintenance facilities that often serves as a terminal. However, many people use the term airport to refer to any airfield. An airpark is a small airport that is usually near an industrial area.

  • Massachusetts Airport Pavement Management System Overview
    2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Massachusetts Airport Pavement Management System Overview BACKGROUND Pavements represent one of the largest capital investments in the Massachusetts aviation system, and the condition of these pavements is important both from cost-effectiveness and safety standpoints. Timely airport pavement maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) are crucial because repairs are much more costly once the condition deteriorates below a certain level. Additionally, airport pavement weaknesses, such as cracks and loose debris, pose a significant safety risk to aircraft. Recognizing a need to protect this critical investment, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation Aeronautics Division (MassDOT Aeronautics) established a statewide airport pavement management system (APMS) in 2012 to monitor the condition of the Massachusetts airport infrastructure and to proactively plan for its preservation. The ultimate goal of this project was to provide the airports, MassDOT Aeronautics, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) with the pavement information and analytical tools that could help them identify pavement-related needs, optimize the selection of projects and treatments over a multi-year period, and evaluate the long-term impacts of project priorities. During this project, the pavement conditions at thirty-three Massachusetts airports were assessed, and the collected pavement inventory and condition data were used to establish an APMS database. The data were analyzed to determine the overall health of the aviation pavement system, to identify pavement-related needs, and to provide recommendations for pavement M&R. This report describes the findings and recommendations of the APMS project. BENEFITS OF THE AIRPORT PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The MassDOT Aeronautics APMS yields many benefits. It provides MassDOT Aeronautics, the individual airports, and the FAA with the information needed to monitor the condition of the pavements to ensure they are able to safely accommodate aircraft operations.

  • Forecasts of Aviation Demand and Capacity
    Chatham Municipal Airport Airport Master Plan Update CHAPTER 4 – FORECASTS OF AVIATION DEMAND AND CAPACITY In order to identify Airport facility needs during the planning period, it is necessary to accurately depict the current aviation use of the Airport, and to project future aviation demand levels. This chapter summarizes current aircraft usage at the Airport and documents the projected aviation demand for the Airport during the 20‐year planning period of this study. The forecasts presented in this chapter provide short‐(0‐5 years), mid‐(6‐10 years), and long‐term (11‐20 year) projections of aviation activity at CQX for the years 2023, 2028, and 2038. It is important, however, to view the projections independently of specific years and to consider the actual growth of activity as the impetus that influences the need for future airport facilities. Similarly, slower than projected growth may warrant deferment of planned improvements. Actual growth activity should be periodically (i.e. annually) compared to projected growth, so scheduled corrections can be identified and implemented. 4.1 OVERVIEW OF AVIATION FORECASTS The objective of forecasting an airport’s activity is to identify the factors that influence aviation demand so that future infrastructure and facility needs can be determined. The FAA’s Terminal Area Forecast (TAF)1 is the standard benchmark of an airport’s future activity and serves as the basis for FAA planning. Therefore, this forecast uses the most recent TAF (2017‐2045) as a starting point for analysis. In addition to the TAF, FAA Aerospace Forecasts2, airport historic reports, and unique local factors will be reviewed and analyzed to further complement the TAF.
