Using data collected from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics, we analyze 110 different aircraft types from 145 airlines operating U.S. commercial domestic service between 1991 and 2010. We classify the aircraft analyzed into four categories: turboprop, regional jet, narrow-body, and wide-body.

  • Denver International Airport (DIA), Airport Code DEN
    DIA Directions for participants in the 9th WMO Virtual Laboratory Management Group Welcome to Colorado! You will arrive at Denver International Airport (DIA), airport code DEN. International Arrivals If you are arriving directly from another country and have not cleared U.S. Customs and Border Protection, you will arrive at the airport’s Concourse A gates. When you disembark from the plane, you will travel through a passageway and over an enclosed bridge; then take an escalator or elevator to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, located in Jeppesen (Main) Terminal. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers will examine your passport and other required government documentation. You will collect your baggage and leave the inspection area by handing your CBP Form 6059B to the CBP officer, and exiting into the Main Terminal at Level 5. Find more information on U.S. Customs and Border Protection at www.cbp.gov. (tel. 303-342- 7400) Domestic Arrivals If your flight originated in the U.S. (you will have already cleared U.S. Customs and Border Protection), it will arrive in Concourse A, B, or C. Follow the Baggage Claim signs to the center of the concourse and take the escalator down to the train level. The trains arrive frequently. You will get off at the final stop – the main terminal. You will then take the escalator up to the main floor of the terminal at Level 5. Depending on your airline, you will go to either the East side or West side of the terminal to claim your luggage. (See attached airline locations for Terminals West and East.) Follow baggage claim signs.

    The ability to think quickly and remain calm under pressure while maintaining a situational awareness are all unique qualities that air traffic controllers possess. Without their willingness to jump right in to resolve complex situations, offer a reassuring voice to those on the frequency and coordinate their efforts with other controllers, this group of dedicated professionals wouldn’t be as successful as they are today at maintaining the safety of the National Airspace System. While many controllers often feel that they are “just doing their job,” their hard work is viewed by others as remarkable and extraordinary. Named after the first air traffic controller, this program highlights a variety of “saves” – some which involve a team of controllers working together and others which are the result of one controller’s efforts. Air traffic controllers juggle a variety of variables and complex scenarios. Their ability to adapt to ever-changing situations while keeping their composure is a skill they have mastered. As a result of their commitment to perfection, our aviation system is the safest in the world.
