The Airport Layout Plan forecast (“MMH / Level: 1 + Aligned at: 0.5" + Tab after: 0.75" + Indent at: 0.75", Tab stops: 0.94", List tab Brandley forecast”) was developed by Reinard W. Brandley. Brandley considered + Not at 0.75" various information during the development of this forecast, including forecasts prepared by Mammoth Mountain Ski Area’s airline consultant in collaboration with airport staff and Mammoth Lakes Tourism. The MMH / Brandley forecast includes an analysis of peer resort airport enplanements and airline operations that include Yampa Valley, Eagle County, Aspen-Pitkin, Glacier Park, Montrose Regional, and Friedman Memorial (Sun Valley) airports. It is reasonable to expect that MMH will have a growth rate similar to that of its peer review airports. These resorts were chosen because they are similar in nature to MMH and have successful air service programs. This growth is based on the continued support of the Town, Mammoth Lakes Tourism, the Eastern Sierra Air Alliance, Mono County, and Mammoth Mountain Ski Area (MMSA). As mentioned above, MMSA had aviation forecasts prepared by an airline consultant in collaboration with airport staff and Mammoth Lakes Tourism, which were considered in the development of the MMH / Brandley forecast. A draft MMSA forecast was presented to the community in a series of six workshops in the spring of 2011. The Town’s Airport Commission also held a workshop focused on the draft MMSA forecast in December 2011, at which the MMSA Formatted: Justified, Don't hyphenate, Tab airline consultant presented his assumptions and methodology. Subsequently, in stops: 3.25", Centered Mammoth Yosemite Airport Layout Plan May 2012 2-1 CHAPTER 2 - INVENTORY March 2012, the draft MMSA forecast was revised and is contained in Table No. 3-1. The revised MMSA forecast shows enplanements increasing from 26,200 in 2011 to approximately 130,500 in 2028, using a 60 percent load factor. The MMSA forecasts were evaluated and considered by Brandley in the development of the MMH / Brandley forecast of airline enplaned passengers and operations. The MMH / Brandley forecast of enplanements projects enplanements to increase from 26,200 in 2011 to 140,000 in 2030 (see Table No. 3-4), which equates to roughly 1,000 passengers arriving daily in the winter of 2030. 3-2 Airport Role MMH has previously served and will continue to serve as a general aviation an Formatted: Body Text Indent, Left, Indent: airport that provides service for aircraft from the Central and Western United Left: 0" States to bringbringing visitors to the recreation facilities available in the area, including skiing, fishing, and hiking, and access to Yosemite National Park. Recently, airline service has been instituted and is growing rapidly, which serves airports in the western. MMH is currently classified by F.A.A. as a Primary Commercial Service Airport. The new air service to the region is subsidized by the MMSA in the winter to maintain a competitive position with other ski resorts in the Western United States. Summer air service has been subsidized by a partnership of the Town, Mono County, and MMSA. MMSA and the Town are committed to maintaining and expanding airline service to MMH; MMSA has provided a letter of commitment to the Town to formalize the partnership (see Appendix A). The nearest commercial airport to Mammoth Lakes is Reno, Nevada, which is 170 miles to the north. A series of 90 hangars were constructed by the fixed base operator and sold to individual pilots and aircraft owners for aircraft storage at the airport while they are off enjoying the recreation facilities.. These hangars are in a pool, which is controlled and operated by the fixed base operator, providing covered storage space for visiting aircraft. Mammoth Yosemite AirportMMH only has eight based aircraft –- six single engine and two small twin-engine. The based aircraft population is not expected to change appreciably in the forecast period. The local operations at the airport are minimal. because of the visitor-based recreational resort nature of MMH. While locally based operations at the airport are minimal, there are a significant number of itinerant operations at the airport. MMH serves GA aircraft ranging from the small single-engine propeller aircraft to large business jets on a year round basis. MMH also serves a growing airline operation. It is expected that these operations will continue at MMH and that there will be significant growth in the airline and business aircraft operations.

Normally only the first line of a paragraph is indented. A hanging paragraph is a paragraph like this one where lines other than the first have indentation. Other au- thors might wish to use hanging punctuation. In this style of typesetting punctuation marks that come at either the start or end of a line are typeset outside the normal text block. The hanging package provides facilities for both hanging paragraphs and hang- ing punctuation. This manual is typeset according to the conventions of the LATEX doc- strip utility which enables the automatic extraction of the LATEX macro source files [GMS94]. ∗This file (hanging.dtx) has version number v1.2b, last revised 2009/09/02. 1 Section 2 describes the usage of the package. Commented source code for the package is in Section 3. 2 The hanging package 2.1 Hanging paragraphs The hanging package provides a command for producing a single hanging para- graph and an environment for typesetting a series of hanging paragraphs. \hangpara The command \hangpara{hindenti}{hafternumi} placed at the start of a para- graph will cause it to be typeset as a hanging paragraph.

    Photoshop Typography: Elements of the Character Panel

    PHOTOSHOP TYPOGRAPHY: ELEMENTS OF THE CHARACTER PANEL Learn how to utilize Photoshop typography to create stunning images by effectively pairing text and photos together. Many Photoshop users don’t have access to other programs that allow them to combine type with images, such as Adobe InDesign. Adobe knows that many people use Photoshop to create text-and-image documents, and has expanded the type tools available to Photoshop users. In light of this, I’ve started the “Photoshop Typography” series to help you make your type in Photoshop look professional. THE CHARACTER PANEL IN PHOTOSHOP Open Character panel by going to Type Menu → Panels → Type Panel. You can also type Cmd/Ctrl-T to open the window. All sorts of type choices and options become available to you through this window. It’s time to go exploring. I’ve numbered various areas to draw your attention. #1 – Select A Font Pick the font you want by clicking on the name of the font at the top left of the panel – the screenshot is currently showing Helvetica Neue. Click on the downward pointing arrow at the right of the box to see the whole menu of fonts currently available, or put your cursor at the front the field and type the first few letters of the font name you want. Photoshop will automatically display the font you type from the first few letters. By the way, if you have a font you want to install and use, you can install it at any time, and do not have to restart Photoshop to use the newly installed font.

This relationship between form and counterform defines the optimal spacing of that particular typeface and, therefore, of the overall spacing between words and lines of type, and among paragraphs. Space Space S p a c e TYPOGRAPHY 1 text mechanics Kerning Kerning is an adjustment of the space between two letters. As the characters of the Latin alphabet emerged over time; they were not designed with mechanical or automated spacing in mind. Thus some letter combinations look awkward without special spacing considerations. Gaps occur around letters whose forms angle outward or frame an open space (W, Y, V, T). Spacing Matters TYPOGRAPHY 1 text mechanics Kerning (continued) With metric kerning, a program such as Adobe Illustrator or Adobe InDesign uses values found in a particular fonts kerning table. These values were defined by the type designer when the font was created. The metric kerning setting represents the designers intent for spacing between certain letters within a given font. With optical kerning, a program such as Adobe Illustrator or Adobe InDesign uses an algorithm to calculate the optimal spacing for each pair of consecutive characters. Generally speaking, this setting can produce varied results but can sometimes work well in certain situations.
