  • General Aviation Activity and Airport Facilities
    New Hampshire State Airport System Plan Update CHAPTER 2 - AIRPORT SYSTEM INVENTORY 2.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the existing airport system in New Hampshire as of the end of 2001 and early 2002 and served as the database for the overall System Plan. As such, it was updated throughout the course of the study. This Chapter focuses on the aviation infrastructure that makes up the system of airports in the State, as well as aviation activity, airport facilities, airport financing, airspace and air traffic services, as well as airport access. Chapter 3 discusses the general economic conditions within the regions and municipalities that are served by the airport system. The primary purpose of this data collection and analysis was to provide a comprehensive overview of the aviation system and its key elements. These elements also served as the basis for the subsequent recommendations presented for the airport system. The specific topics covered in this Chapter include: S Data Collection Process S Airport Descriptions S Airport Financing S Airport System Structure S Airspace and Navigational Aids S Capital Improvement Program S Definitions S Scheduled Air Service Summary S Environmental Factors 2.2 DATA COLLECTION PROCESS The data collection was accomplished through a multi-step process that included cataloging existing relevant literature and data, and conducting individual airport surveys and site visits. Division of Aeronautics provided information from their files that included existing airport master plans, FAA Form 5010 Airport Master Records, financial information, and other pertinent data. Two important element of the data collection process included visits to each of the system airports, as well as surveys of airport managers and users.

  • Head of Customer Services Arriva Trains Wales April 2011 to The
    Head of Customer Services Arriva Trains Wales April 2011 To the Head of Customer Services Re: Arriva Trains Wales Summer Timetable Changes Adversely Affecting Commuters I write to you on behalf of fellow passengers in protest of the timetable changes being made to the service which starts at Carmarthen at 05:50 destined for Manchester Piccadilly. Like many other customers, I commute to Cardiff on this service daily. I board at Llanelli at 06:18 but this petition speaks for customers boarding at all stations between Carmarthen and Cardiff. Currently, the service arrives at Cardiff at 07:40, giving those who start work by 08:00 enough time to travel by foot or by bus to their place of work in Cardiff. The proposed changes see this service arriving at Cardiff at 08:01, rendering the service useless to almost all passengers who currently board the train West of Cardiff. For those who have the option, Arriva Trains Wales will lose customers to the First Great Western Service leaving Swansea at 06:58, however this service is not available to those boarding West of Swansea or at Pyle or Llanharan. However, since the First Great Western Service arrives at Cardiff 12 minutes later than current Arriva Trains Wales service, this solution may not be viable even for those who have the option of using it. There is further outrage amongst customers regarding the following issues: Trains stopping less frequently at stations in West Wales on some services The 16:04 train from Cardiff to Milford Haven (used on the way home by many commuters who catch the service arriving at Cardiff at 07:40) will be leaving at 15:54 after the timetable changes.
