Content Inside :
This report identifies several key design and operational characteristics of proposed NLA that will need to be taken into consideration before the aircraft are introduced into the current airport environment. Specific elements of airport planning and design that may be affected by these changes in aircraft characteristics have been identified to assist airport planners and the FAA in preparing for the NLA’s arrival. Throughout this report, references are made to current airport design Advisory Circulars that will require modifications to reflect the introduction of NLA. Some changes will include simple additions of aircraft performance data, while others will require incorporation of new standards or recommendations that specifically address NLA. IRPORT DESIGN RATIONALE Current FAA airport design standards provide reference and guidance for airport designers and forecasters relating to construction and configuration of all runways, taxiways, aprons, and terminals. The new large aircraft’s physical and operational characteristics will therefore dictate the design of future airports and their facilities. IMPACT ON AIRPORT DESIGN The FAA’s current airport design standards provide guidance to airport operators for the design, operation, maintenance, and expansion of airports. Preliminary research into the affects of NLA on airport design has shown that the introduction of NLA will significantly affect nearly every U.S. airport intending to accept them. Design standards for all geometrical airport design criteria are included in AC 150/5300-13. It covers runway and taxiway design standards for all size aircraft, even as large as NLA.
