  • TWA's Lockheed Constellation Makes Trip To
    www.MetroAirportNews.com Serving the Airport Workforce and Local Communities November 2018 INSIDE THIS ISSUE TWA’s Lockheed Constellation Makes Trip to JFK Airport – On I-95 A vintage commercial airplane embarked on a long, slow journey from Maine to New York where it will be turned into a cocktail lounge. The long trip of the Lockheed Constellation, known as the “Connie,” kicked off Monday, Oc- Tyler Moss, TWA Hotel CEO went to Maine to supervise the reinstallation of the Connie 04 tober 7th at a send-off event Auburn-Lewiston Airport in Maine. The plane then departed JFK To Get Two New Terminals Tuesday morning and make its way over the next several days to New York on a tow truck. Decorated in authentic TWA livery, our Connie — whose fleet once served as Air Force One for President Dwight D. Eisenhower and broke the record for fastest nonstop trip from Burbank to New York with former TWA owner Howard Hughes at the helm in 1946 — deserves a victory lap before welcoming hotel guests into her cockpit. So, as with all things related to the TWA Hotel project, we looked to TWA’s rich history for inspiration. 15 Continued on page 3 JetBlue Teams Up With the Brooklyn Nets for Its Newest Special Livery EWR Celebrates Past, Present and Future With Ceremonial Groundbreaking Newark Airport which opened on October 1, 1928, was known as the first major airport in the New York-New Jersey metropolitan area.

  • Appendix H Detailed Airport Case Studies
    ACRP 01-14 Considering and Evaluating Airport Privatization Appendix H Appendix H Detailed Airport Case Studies H.1 Case Study Selections Case studies can be a useful means of illustrating first-hand experiences and lessons learned from those experiences. The purpose of this task is to document case studies to illustrate lessons learned for a range of airport sizes, privatization strategies, and forms of governance for both successful and unsuccessful efforts. For each case study, the research team documented (1) the initial goals and objectives of the airport sponsor for undertaking the privatization initiative, (2) a summary of the process employed, (4) a summary of the business terms of the initiative, (4) documentation of the experience to date, and (5) lessons learned. Literature reviews, transaction document reviews, and interviews were used to gather information for the case studies. Each case study considers the objectives, timeline, competitive bidding process, stakeholder interests, business terms, and the consequences (including development and operational experiences) and then presents lessons learned. It should be noted that, where the responses of individual interview participants are referred to in this report, these represent the interviewee’s own views and perceptions. However such responses have only been included to where they appear to represent opinions held more widely, or have been directly substantiated by other means On the basis of recommendations and justifications put forth by the research team, the ACRP Panel decided to ask the team to conduct case studies of the domestic and international airports as noted below.

    RUDY’S INFLIGHT CATERING Media Contacts: 180 North Street Jessica Rourke, Rudy’s Inflight Catering Teterboro, NJ 07608 201­727­1122, [email protected] Bruce Fabricant, Public Relations 914­328­0226, [email protected] What is Rudy's Inflight Catering Rudy's Inflight Catering is the pioneer and worldwide leader in business aviation in­flight catering. Rudy's began in 1983 when two brothers, Joe and John Celentano, turned a request for food takeout from their family's restaurant near Teterboro Airport in New Jersey into a company that is the leader in the $150 million business aviation in­flight catering industry. Brothers Sal and Rudy Celentano opened a family restaurant with an Italian flair in 1976. Some of its clientele came from people working at Teterboro Airport. The aviation crowd liked the food and wanted the Celentano’s to furnish boxed meals for their aircraft passengers. The brothers declined, but Sal's sons Joe and John saw the opportunity, and "Rudy's Inflight Catering" was born. In 1983, the brothers produced meals for about 16 aircraft a week. They were doing 15 to 20 aircraft a day, a year and a half later. Today, Rudy's provides meals for an average of 400 flights a day out of New York and Washington DC area airports, a number that can triple on peak days. Rudy's Inflight Catering has grown over the past 20 years from a 2,000 square foot kitchen to a 17,000 square foot building in Teterboro. Rudy's Inflight Catering also has facilities located directly on the field at Westchester County Airport in New York and in Chantilly, Virginia, located 5 miles from Dulles International Airport.

  • Runway Safety Report Safety Runway
    FAA Runway Safety Report Safety Runway FAA Runway Safety Report September 2007 September 2007 September Federal Aviation Administration 800 Independence Avenue SW Washington, DC 20591 www.faa.gov OK-07-377 Message from the Administrator The primary mission of the Federal Aviation Administration is safety. It’s our bottom line. With the aviation community, we have developed the safest mode of transportation in the history of the world, and we are now enjoying the safest period in aviation history. Yet, we can never rest on our laurels because safety is the result of constant vigilance and a sharp focus on our bottom line. Managing the safety risks in the National Airspace System requires a systematic approach that integrates safety into daily operations in control towers, airports and aircraft. Using this approach, we have reduced runway incursions to historically low rates over the past few years, primarily by increasing awareness and training and deploying new technologies that provide critical information directly to flight crews and air traffic controllers. Other new initiatives and technologies, as outlined in the 2007 Runway Safety Report, will provide a means to an even safer tomorrow. With our partners, FAA will continue working to eliminate the threat of runway incursions, focusing our resources and energies where we have the best chance of achieving success. To the many dedicated professionals in the FAA and the aviation community who have worked so tirelessly to address this safety challenge, I want to extend our deepest gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding work you have done to address this ever-changing and ever-present safety threat.
