The initial phase will consist of one-on-one meetings with various community leaders from the following areas: • Economic development • Academia • Healthcare • Biotechnology • High technology/telecommunications • Tourism and hospitality • Environmental • Arts and culture 27 Civic Engagement – Key Messages n A breakthrough alliance of the San Diego County Regional Airport Authority, City of San Diego and SANDAG (San Diego Association of Governments) is leading an Ad Hoc Policy Committee that includes the Port of San Diego, County of San Diego, Metropolitan Transit System, North County Transit District and U.S. Department of Defense • It is particularly important to note that the military is at the table in this process • Ultimately, a region-wide civic dialogue will be used to develop a visionary, implementable concept. • The plan will be built on consensus, bridging jurisdictional boundaries n The committee is steering an integrated process considering bold possibilities for San Diego International Airport at Lindbergh Field n The committee’s goal is to answer the question, “What is the ultimate build- out for Lindbergh?” as well as to minimize traffic impacts to adjacent communities and improve inter-modal access, while considering the airport as a potential regional transportation hub 28 Civic Engagement – Key Messages n On August 2 the committee held a half-day workshop to delve into several different concepts, including: • Six concepts for the terminal and an inter-modal transit center layout • Six concepts for the airfield (runway and taxiways) layout • How those concepts could be combined into alternatives for further study n Several key issues emerged that now are being studied by the consultant team and worked through by the committee, including, but not limited to the following: • A full-length Taxiway C north of the runway • The location of passenger terminal(s) and gates • The potential upsides and downsides of an automated people mover • Phasing of construction of new facilities and removal of existing facilities • Improved access to I-5 and various forms of transit • Costs and funding options • Expectations regarding customer service n The ultimate plan will almost certainly be a compromise and will entail significant trade-offs that the committee will discuss with over the next six months n We plan to keep you informed of Destination Lindbergh’s progress and there is a web site if you wish to track the project in real-time: www.destinationlindbergh.com 29.

  • Assessment of the Ability of Existing Airport Gate Infrastructure to Accommodate Transport Category Aircraft with Increased Wingspan for Improved Fuel Efficiency
    ASSESSMENT OF THE ABILITY OF EXISTING AIRPORT GATE INFRASTRUCTURE TO ACCOMMODATE TRANSPORT CATEGORY AIRCRAFT WITH INCREASED WINGSPAN FOR IMPROVED FUEL EFFICIENCY Kristina C. Bishop and R. John Hansman This report is based on the Masters Thesis of Kristina C. Bishop submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Report No. ICAT-2012-4 May 2012 MIT International Center for Air Transportation (ICAT) Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA 02139 USA [This Page Intentionally Left Blank] 2 ASSESSMENT OF THE ABILITY OF EXISTING AIRPORT GATE INFRASTRUCTURE TO ACCOMMODATE TRANSPORT CATEGORY AIRCRAFT WITH INCREASED WINGSPAN FOR IMPROVED FUEL EFFICIENCY By Kristina Bishop Submitted to the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics On May 24th, 2012 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Aeronautics and Astronautics. Abstract The continuous trend of rising fuel prices increases interest in improving the fuel efficiency of aircraft operations. Additionally, since fuel burn is directly linked to aircraft CO2 emissions, reducing fuel consumption has environmental benefits. One approach to reducing airline cost and mitigating environmental impacts of aviation is to achieve higher fuel efficiency by increasing aircraft wingspan. One concern is that airports may not be able to accommodate increased-wingspan aircraft since existing gate infrastructure may have been sized for the past and current aircraft. This results in a potential tradeoff for airlines; increasing wingspan increases fuel efficiency, but it also limits the number of gates available to maintain current aircraft operations.

PINKERTON* United Nations In September 1977, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) held its Twenty-second Assembly. Among the resolutions adopted was Resolution A 22-16,1 in which the Assembly requested those member states which had not previously done so, to become parties to the Conven- tion for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft (Hague, 1970)2 and the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation (Montreal, 1971).1 On November 3, 1977, the United Nations General Assembly, in response to the concern voiced by the ICAO, adopted by consensus Resolution 32/84 on the safety of international civil aviation. In adopting the resolution the General Assembly reaffirmed its condemna- tion of aerial hijacking and other interference with civil air travel. Two days earlier the Special Political Commitee had approved, by consensus, the resolution in draft form? In its final form, Resolution 32/8 is divided into five paragraphs.

Toh Seattle University, Seattle, WA ABSTRACT The International Air Transportation Competition Act of 1979 heralded the era of Open Skies in international aviation. This paper traces the post-war regulation and then deregulation of fares, rates, routes, and capacity all the way from Bermuda I through the partial dismantling of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) price fixing apparatus; and discusses the impediments to Open Skies and examines the impact on the IATA. THE POST WORLD WAR II ERA OF REGULATION Following the 1944 collapse of the Chicago Conference, the United States and Britain signed the precedent-setting Bermuda I Agreement in 1946. Ber- muda I granted each party the five freedoms of the air1 on named routes and for approved multiple carriers without capacity or flight frequency restrictions (but which could be imposed ex-post facto). The Agreement clearly favored the United States which then accounted for about 60 percent of the world’s passen- ger airline traffic and which had the largest and most efficient international air- lines. As a concession to the British who feared American domination, the Americans agreed to allow the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to set international fares and cargo rates and severely limit fifth freedom rights. Bermuda I served as the model for future bilateral
