  • Forecasts of Aviation Activity
    CHAPTER B Forecasts of Aviation Activity: Forecasting is a key element in any airport master planning process. The forecast process is essential for analyzing existing airport facilities and identifying further needs and requirements of the facilities that may arise over the next 20 years. The relationship between aviation activity and projected demand is an indicator as to the type, timing, and allocation of future airport infrastructure, equipment, and service needs. For the purposes of this Airport Master Plan, the most important element of the forecasts chapter is the documentation of existing aircraft operations by type and size of aircraft as well as the future projections of operations by type and size of aircraft. One of the assumed outcomes of this planning process was that the type and size of aircraft using the Airport on a regular basis are larger than what RNT was originally designed for. The trend of more operations by larger design aircraft is forecast to continue and warrants a design standard change for RNT. This change in design standards is further discussed starting on Page B.37 with the conclusion being that the Airport is, in fact, in need of a design standards upgrade in accordance with FAA guidance. Introduction. The RNT aviation activity forecasts in this chapter are developed for a 20-year planning period and are based on historic activity, industry trends, local socioeconomic data, and changes at RNT since the completion of previous planning studies. The forecasts utilize FY2015 (October 2014 through September 2015) as the base year and project future activity through 2035, identified in 5-year increments.

Ziegler, P.E. 2702 South 42nd Street, Suite 201 Director Tacoma, Washington 98409-7322 [email protected] piercecountywa.org/pwu TO: Dan Roach, Chair Pierce County Council FROM: Deb Wallace, Airport and Ferry Administrator DATE: October 28, 2014 SUBJECT: Airport Security The purpose of this briefing paper is to provide an update to Council on the status of security upgrades at Pierce County's airports. Current Situation: The Pierce County Airport and Ferry division is in the process of upgrading gate access, fencing, and security lighting at both airports. In 2015 the division will implement an Airport Watch program to increase the safety and security at each facility. The improvements are being made due to incidents which have occurred at the airports over the last several years and at the request of airport tenants. Currently both airports are fenced with restricted access gates to enhance security, although there are gaps in the fencing allowing unauthorized pedestrian entry. These gaps will be addressed in early 2015. An electronic gate is being added to the north gate at Tacoma Narrows Airport (TIW) and the south gate is being outfitted with a mechanism to allow its use by those who are hearing impaired. Once that improvement is completed, 24 hour security will be implemented at TIW. Thun Field currently operates with 24 hour gate security. Prior to implementation, the airport commissions at each airport discussed airport security measures during the preceding year and staff coordinated the implementation of the security measures with airport tenants.

  • B Forecasts of Aviation Activity
    B Forecasts of Aviation Activity INTRODUCTION. The aviation demand projections are documented in the following sections: ▪ Historical and Exiting Aviation Activity ▪ Previous Forecasts ▪ Factors Affecting Aviation Forecasts ▪ Forecast Methodologies ▪ Forecast of Aviation Demand Activity o Commercial Passenger Enplanement & Operations Forecast o Air Cargo Weight & Operations Forecast o General Aviation Operations Forecast o Military Aircraft Operations Forecast o Aircraft Operations Forecast (Mix, Peaking, Critical Planning Aircraft) o General Aviation Based Aircraft Forecast ▪ Runway Design Code (RDC)/Critical Aircraft Analysis ▪ FAA TAF Comparison and Forecast Conclusion Aviation forecasts are time-based projections offering a reasonable expectation of future airport activity. The forecast of activity projections influences nearly every aspect of the MP Update process. The relationship between current activity and forecast demand is an indicator as to the type and timing of future airport infrastructure, equipment, and service needs, as well as funding resource allocation. The forecasts are prepared annually for a 20-year planning period, from 2015 through 2035, identified in five- year increments, and segmented into three planning phases: ▪ ‘Near-term’ (2015-2020) ▪ ‘Mid-term’ (2021-2025) ▪ ‘Long-term’ (2025-2035) The forecasts are developed consistent with FAA forecasting guidance, reflecting the current baseline of airport activity levels, user trends, and industry-wide activity patterns. The forecasts are considered “unconstrained”, in that they assume the Airport is sufficiently able to accommodate the demand either through existing facilities or future improvements. B.1 It should also be understood there are typically year-to-year fluctuations to forecast activity due to various unanticipated factors and unforeseen demand circumstances (e.g., changes in emerging airport markets and national aviation trends, including economic factors, both nationally and regionally.

  • National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Preliminary Report
    National Transportation Safety Board Aviation Accident Preliminary Report Location: Lakeland, FL Accident Number: ERA21LA201 Date & Time: May 1, 2021, 14:28 Local Registration: N125WC Aircraft: Beech A36 Injuries: 1 Fatal, 1 Serious Flight Conducted Part 91: General aviation - Personal Under: On May 1, 2021, about 1428 eastern daylight time, a Beech A36, N125WC, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Lakeland, Florida. The private pilot was seriously injured, and the pilot- rated passenger was fatally injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. According to Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) data, earlier on the day of the accident the airplane flew to several airports before arriving at Bartow Executive Airport (BOW), Bartow, Florida. The accident flight departed BOW about 1420 and proceeded toward Lakeland Linder International Airport (LAL), Lakeland, Florida. According to recorded air traffic control communications with the LAL air traffic control tower, the flight was instructed by the local controller to join the right downwind leg of the airport traffic pattern for runway 9 at or above 1,500 ft mean sea level (msl). The local controller observed the airplane descending to 800 ft msl and informed the pilot that the flight needed to be at or above 1,500 ft msl, and to turn southbound. An occupant of the airplane advised the controller of an engine failure. The airplane was cleared to land on runway 5, and subsequently cleared to land on runway 27, after a transport category airplane that was on approach to runway 9 was instructed to go-around; however, the pilot or passenger advised that the airplane could not reach the runway.
