  • Chapter 2 – Aviation Demand Forecast
    CHAPTER 2 AVIATION FORECASTS Oscoda – Wurtsmith Airport Authority Oscoda-Wurtsmith Airport Master Plan CHAPTER 2 AVIATION FORECAST Aviation forecasts are time-based projections offering a reasonable expectation of future Oscoda- Wurtsmith Airport activity during the 20-year planning period (2010-2030). Forecasts influence virtually all phases of the planning process, as the relationship between activity and projected demand indicates the type, extent, and timing of Airport improvements for various triggers of Airport infrastructure, equipment and service needs. Primarily, the forecast of aircraft activity is used to quantify the Airport’s operational peaking and capacity characteristics, determine the sizing and space allocation for structures and site development, and form the basis to evaluate the feasibility of various development options. Overall, the forecast predictions attempt to account for factors at Oscoda which could likely influence projections in some significant or substantial way; whether an occurrence of past trends or an assumption of future expectations. As indicated in Chapter 1, the FAA Terminal Area Forecasts (TAF) combined with the forecasts developed for the Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) operations continues to support the Boeing 747 heavy widebody aircraft as the Airport’s most demanding, or critical aircraft, used for future facility planning and design purposes. The following forecast components are assessed in this chapter: Aircraft Operations – The number of aircraft landings and takeoffs conducted annually by local and itinerant traffic, including general aviation, commercial and military users. ‘Local’ operations are flights performed in the Airport traffic pattern vicinity, including proficiency training, instrument training and flights from nearby airports. ‘Itinerant’ operations are traffic arriving and departing from beyond the local vicinity.

Roger Peterson Arthur and Ruth Sloan Professor of Political Science Chair, Graduate Program Committee 1 Why some airport-rail links get built and others do not: the role of institutions, equity and financing by Julia Nickel Submitted to the Department of Political Science On October 12, 2010, in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Political Science Abstract The thesis seeks to provide an understanding of reasons for different outcomes of airport ground access projects. Five in-depth case studies (Hongkong, Tokyo-Narita, London- Heathrow, Chicago- O’Hare and Paris-Charles de Gaulle) and eight smaller case studies (Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, Shanghai-Pudong, Bangkok, Beijing, Rome- Fiumicino, Istanbul-Atatürk and Munich- Franz Josef Strauss) are conducted. The thesis builds on existing literature that compares airport-rail links by explicitly considering the influence of the institutional environment of an airport on its ground access situation and by paying special attention to recently opened dedicated airport expresses in Asia.

Schwieterman and Euan Hague Our analysis of newly released air cargo traffic data for 2020 shows that: Tonnage at cargo-focused hub airports, i.e., airports with extensive cargo traffic but little or no passenger traffic, grew 31.4% from 2019 to 2020 Chicago Rockford, Wilmington Air Park, Ft. Worth Alliance, and Boeing Field/King Co. airports were among the leaders of the 14 cargo-focused hubs identified A surge in online buying for at-home delivery is fueling much of the growth Airports that are focal points for air freight integrators DHL, FedEx, and UPS and have more passenger traffic than cargo-focused hubs grew more slowly, yet at a still substantial 9.0% rate The rapid growth raises important social, economic, and environmental questions he emergence, evolution, and performance of specialized cargo airports have long been of T interest to investors and policymakers in the United States.1 This Chaddick Policy Brief reviews the recent growth of cargo-focused hub airports, i.e., airports that have significant roles in cargo movement while handling a low volume of passenger traffic.

    Transportation Safety Board Bureau de la sécurité des transports of Canada du Canada AVIATION OCCURRENCE REPORT REJECTED TAKE-OFF/RUNWAY OVERRUN CANADIAN AIRLINES INTERNATIONAL MCDONNELL DOUGLAS DC-10-30ER C-GCPF VANCOUVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, BRITISH COLUMBIA 19 OCTOBER 1995 REPORT NUMBER A95H0015 MANDATE OF THE TSB The Canadian Transportation Accident Investigation and Safety Board Act provides the legal framework governing the TSB's activities. The TSB has a mandate to advance safety in the marine, pipeline, rail, and aviation modes of transportation by: ! conducting independent investigations and, if necessary, public inquiries into transportation occurrences in order to make findings as to their causes and contributing factors; ! reporting publicly on its investigations and public inquiries and on the related findings; ! identifying safety deficiencies as evidenced by transportation occurrences; ! making recommendations designed to eliminate or reduce any such safety deficiencies; and ! conducting special studies and special investigations on transportation safety matters. It is not the function of the Board to assign fault or determine civil or criminal liability. INDEPENDENCE To encourage public confidence in transportation accident investigation, the investigating agency must be, and be seen to be, objective, independent and free from any conflicts of interest. The key feature of the TSB is its independence. It reports to Parliament through the President of the Queen`s Privy Council for Canada and is separate from other government agencies and departments. Its independence enables it to be fully objective in arriving at its conclusions and recommendations. Its continuing independence rests on its competence, openness, and integrity, together with the fairness of its processes. Visit the TSB site.
