Aerotropolis Americas Conference and Exhibition Denver International Airport will be hosting a three-day conference and exhibition in December.

An aerotropolis refers to planned urban development around an airport, which serves as the economic core of the community. An aerotropolis “blurs conventional airport boundaries and spreads outwards into the surrounding area through transportation corridors dotted with clusters of aviation-linked businesses and associated residential development,” according to the conference website. Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock will welcome conference attendees and participate in a panel discussion about the importance of air connectivity and the role of an aerotropolis in stimulating local economic development. Kim Day, Denver International Airport’s chief executive officer, will speak at the conference, and Ginger Evans, who oversaw construction of DIA and who is now vice president for engineering with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority will speak at a session titled: “Aerotropolis Around the World—Differences and Similarities.” Many other planning, real estate and government experts from the Americas region will present case studies, share their knowledge and perspectives, and discuss such topics as: Planning a competitive aerotropolis Environmentally sustainable and economically driven airport cities and aerotropoli A real estate developer’s perspective on investing in facilities in and around the airport Generating sustainable non-aeronautical revenue to fund aerotropolis infrastructure For information about attending the conference and to see the program, follow this link to the event’s website: Aerotropolis-Americas.

First Commuter Rail Cars for DIA Line Have Arrived in Denver The first four rail cars that will be part of RTD's FasTracks electric commuter rail lines arrived in Denver on Nov. 20, after a three-week-long journey from their http://business.flydenver.com/info/news/publications/wingtips/2014NovLarge.html[4/27/2015 4:09:11 PM] WingTips November 2014 Philadelphia Hyundai Rotem USA assembly plant. RTD says it has purchased 66 cars to serve the East Rail Line to Denver International Airport, plus the Northwest Rail Line to Westminster, the Gold Line to Arvada/Wheat Ridge and the North Metro Rail Line to Thornton. Traveling faster than light rail vehicles, the commuter rail trains can go as fast as 79 miles per hour. Commuter rail is used on longer lines and makes fewer stops than a typical light rail system. The steel car shells were manufactured at Hyundai Rotem's plant in South Korea, then shipped to the company's plant in Philadelphia for fitting and assembly of various components. Boarding passengers will be able to walk directly from a station platform onto the train without climbing stairs. The cars have large seats with headrests, overhead storage, luggage racks and bicycle racks. In Denver, the vehicles will be maintained, serviced and cleaned at RTD’s new commuter rail maintenance facility in Denver's Globeville neighborhood. You can explore the new cars at an open house at Union Station Dec. 3 through Dec. 6 (Wednesday through Saturday) between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. To see photographs of the new rail cars follow these links: Train car interiors Train car exteriors Thanksgiving Travel Tips Denver International Airport is expecting a high passenger volume during Thanksgiving week, perhaps as many as one million passengers from Tuesday through Monday of the holiday week. Here a few tips that might help if you are flying before, during or after Thanksgiving. Packing http://business.flydenver.com/info/news/publications/wingtips/2014NovLarge.html[4/27/2015 4:09:11 PM] WingTips November 2014 Know your airline’s checked bag policies and fees in advance to avoid surprises. Travelers may bring one carry-on bag and one personal item (purse, laptop, etc.) through security. Put medications and other required items in your carry-on bag. Leave holiday gifts unwrapped; TSA may open wrapped packages to check the contents. Before you leave for the airport Check in online if possible. Check with your airline to confirm that your flight is on time. Be at DIA at least two hours prior to your flight departure time to allow plenty of time to check in and for security screening and traveling to your airline gate. Check parking availability at www.flydenver.com. Parking For real-time parking information while you’re on the road, watch for electronic signs along inbound Peña Boulevard or call (303) DIA-PARK. The East and West Economy lots, located next to Jeppesen Terminal garages, usually fill up first ($13/day). The East and West garages are rarely full during the holidays and are available for $3/hour or a $24/day maximum. For a guaranteed space, reserved parking is available in either garage for an additional fee of $4 per day, by visiting www.DIAReservedParking.com. The $8/day Pikes Peak and Mt. Elbert shuttle lots are an alternative to economy and garage parking, but remember to allow an extra 30 minutes when using shuttle lots. Checking in Self-service check-in kiosks are located near airline counters. Even if you checked in online or at a kiosk, you still need to go to a ticket counter to hand off luggage to the airline if you are checking bags. Picking up Curbside parking at Jeppesen Terminal is prohibited. The Final Approach facility and its cellphone waiting lot are located directly north of Peña Boulevard next to the Conoco gas station.

  • Guide to Manitoba Memorial Types
    GUIDE TO MANITOBA MEMORIAL TYPES War Memorials in Manitoba: An Artistic Legacy GUIDE TO MANITOBA MEMORIAL TYPES he memorials honouring Manitoba’s dead of World War I are a profound historical legacy. They are also a major artistic achievement. This section of the study of Manitoba war memorials explores the Tmost common types of memorials with an eye to formal considerations – design, aesthetics, materials, and craftsmanship. For those who look to these objects primarily as places of memory and remembrance, this additional perspective can bring a completely different level of understanding and appreciation, and even delight. Six major groupings of war memorial types have been identified in Manitoba: Tablets Cairns Obelisks Cenotaphs Statues Architectural Monuments Each of these is reviewed in the following entries, with a handful of typical or exceptional Manitoba examples used to illuminate the key design and material issues and attributes that attend the type. Guide to Manitoba Memorial Types 1 War Memorials in Manitoba: An Artistic Legacy Tablets The apparently simple and elemental form of the tablet, also known as a stele (from the ancient Greek, with stelae as the plural), is the most common form of gravesite memorial. Given its popularity and cultural and historical resonance, its use for war memorials is understandable. The tablet is economical—in form and often in cost—but also elegant. And while the simple planar face is capable of conveying a great deal of inscribed information, the very form itself can be seen as a highly abstracted version of the human body – and thus often has a mysterious attractive quality.

  • AAAE Delivers for Airport Executives
    AAAE DELIVERS FOR AIRPORT EXECUTIVES MEDIAKIT 1 Industry Friends and Colleagues: As we prepare for 2010, Airport Magazine is developing articles that will address industry concerns about the nation’s economic recovery; share lessons learned from the recession and the price of fuel and its impact on air service; provide timely information on regulatory and legislative issues; fulfill the far-ranging needs of airports for training information; describe the lessons airports have learned on subjects that include ARFF, technology and airfield and terminal improvements; and much more. Every feature and department in Airport Magazine is designed to deliver relevant, timely and insightful information to our readers. We have crafted our 2010 editorial calendar with these goals in mind. The 2010 lineup combines familiar topics — such as baggage screening, concessions and winter operations — with emerging ones that include NextGen and green airports. Our format will be as varied as our selection of articles: we’ll have roundtables with industry experts; articles written by airport officials; interviews with government and industry officials; and photo features to highlight aspects of our industry. Our ambitious plans for 2010 would not be possible, however, without the faithful support of Airport Magazine’s advertisers. For more than 20 years, companies that advertise to the airport community have trusted Airport Magazine to deliver their message to this audience. For potential advertisers, please consider this: by choosing our magazine to communicate your message, you are supporting not just an advertiser-funded magazine, but an entire association — the American Association of Airport Executives.

  • Are You Suprised ?
    Transportation Observations, Considerations, and Recommendations relative to the Eastern Sierra Expanded Transit System and the Reds Meadow Shuttle Provided by the Interagency Transportation Assistance Group (TAG) / Alternative Transportation in Parks and Public Lands (ATPPL) Program Mammoth Lakes / Bishop, CA August 21 – 23, 2007 A field investigation of the current transportation issues and opportunities relative to the Eastern Sierra Expanded Transit System and the Reds Meadow Shuttle by the inter- agency Transportation Assistance Group (TAG) was conducted August 21-23, 2007, on behalf of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service (USFS) in cooperation with the Devils Postpile National Monument (National Park Service (NPS)) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). This TAG report was prepared subsequent to the site visit and interaction with numerous federal, state, local and private sector stakeholders. This report documents the conditions observed, transportation issues and considerations, and recommendations arising from the TAG analysis. The site visit and the preparation of this report were facilitated and funded by the Alternative Transportation in Parks and Public Lands (ATPPL) program, administered by the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) in coordination with the Department of the Interior (DOI). Background and Conditions The Eastern Sierra Expanded Transit System has evolved from concept to reality through the creation of the Eastern Sierra Transit Authority (ESTA) on July 1, 2007. The ESTA service area encompasses a large area stretching from Reno, NV, on the north to Ridgecrest, CA, on the south – with connections from the region to major metropolitan areas (Las Vegas, NV, Los Angeles, CA, and San Francisco, CA). Inyo and Mono counties comprise the majority of the area both in terms of geography and recreational and tourism opportunities.
