(I.B.D) AIRPORT DESIGN AND OPERATION (3RD ED.)

The aim of this third edition is to present an updated and integrated approach to airport design and operation.

The two are always closely related and influence each other; a poor design affects the airport operation and results in increased costs, however it is not possible to design airport infrastructure without a sound knowledge of the airport operation, this is emphasised throughout the book. The approach reflects not only the authors'' experience from more than 350 airport studies but also their commercial pilot, aeronautical engineering and military air traffic controller background.

This revised edition has been enhanced to reflect changes in technology and the way the air transport industry functions. Key topics that are newly addressed in this book include low cost airline operations, security issues and EASA regulations on airports. A new chapter covering extended details about wildlife control has been added to the volume.
