passage of the 2009 american recovery and reinvestment act (arra) provided

philadelphia international airport with $5 million toward resurfacing runway 9r-27l, a project that will cost a total of $19 million. But even before the financial boost from arra, the airport

had scheduled or had initiated construction on several landside and airside projects to improve operations and customer service.

airport and city officials on may 8, 2009, celebrated the completion of the runway 17-35 extension project, a $70 million undertaking to increase airfield capacity.

The major components of the project included: extension of the runway by 1,040 feet to a total of 6,500 feet and extension of parallel Taxiways D and e; relocation of airside perimeter service roads; installation of high intensity runway lighting; relocation/modification of navaids; and construction of a high-speed taxiway for

runway 35 landings exiting to Taxiway e. But even before the financial boost from arra, the airport had scheduled or had initiated construction on several landside and airside projects to improve operations and customer service.

most of the funding — $42.5 million — came through aip grants to the city. The airport also

received $5.4 million in state funding.it is projected that the increased airfield capacity

created by the lengthened runway will reduce delays at philadelphia international by 11,480 hours next year, airport officials said. Further, the extended runway now will be able to accommodate larger aircraft, specifically regional jets and narrowbody planes.

airport and city officials on May 8, 2009, celebrated the completion of the runway 17-35 extension project....

“The extended runway gives the airport more flexibility in managing airfield operations,” noted mark Gale, a.a.e., acting director of aviation. “if one of the two primary runways needs to be taken out of service for any reason such as construction, maintenance or snow removal, runway 17-35 can now handle many of those planes that require a longer runway to operate.”

“philadelphia international airport is an economic engine for the entire Delaware valley,” commented philadelphia mayor michael nutter. “The extension of runway 17-35 represents the kind of smart public investment that will keep this engine humming, benefiting the entire region for decades to come. now that larger aircraft can make greater use of

a third runway at the airport, it’s expected that aircraft operations will run more efficiently, which will ultimately benefit both the airlines and the flying public.”

rina Cutler, deputy mayor, transportation and utilities, added, “The region depends on philadelphia international airport to remain globally competitive. This runway extension is projected to save airlines $20 million a year in aircraft direct operating costs and generate a net savings in passenger time, valued at $29 million annually. These significant cost reductions keep the airport and region competitive, as we move through a difficult economic climate.”

required to begin by June 17, 2009, and has an estimated completion date of october 2010. one of the airport’s two main runways, 9r-27l is equipped with advanced instrument landing and approach lighting systems.

The $5 million from arra to improve the runway doesn’t require a matching local share, which allows the airport to close funding gaps in the runway 9r-27l project. The balance of funding will come from aip grants and city capital funds, including proceeds from airport revenue bonds.

d/e connectorin late 2008, the airport marked the opening of the Terminal D/e Connector on the second floor of the departures level.

Travelers using Terminals D and e, who account for a quarter of the airport’s passengers, now pass through a newly combined 14-lane security checkpoint to reach their departure gates. airport officials pointed out that the new connector is especially helpful to passengers in Terminal e who now can access other areas of the airport without having to go in and out of security.

The opening of the security checkpoint and concessions area is the first phase of a $300 million

project that also includes: 23 additional ticket counter positions in the two ticket lobbies; a 50,000-square-foot baggage makeup area with eight inline explosives detection system (eDs) machines; a fan-shaped extension at the end of Concourse e with three new aircraft gates; and a 9,000-square-foot D/e bag claim connector with two new carousels. When the project is completed in 2010, a total of 222,000 square feet will have been added to the 2.4 million-square-foot terminal complex.

The new concessions area features a mix of national and local merchants, including Borders, Brookstone, Crocs, inmotion entertainment, lids/lids kids, peet’s Coffee & Tea, sunglass hut, Taxco sterling, Tech showcase and vino volo.

in other planned landside improvements, the airport has hired the firm leo a Daly to undertake a $17 million project to upgrade the airport’s checked baggage inspection system for Terminals B and C. This will include baggage sorting and screening, as well as facility master planning, engineering analysis, design and construction support services.

upgrades to the outbound baggage systems in terminals B and C will eliminate current delivery of unscreened outbound baggage to manually fed eDs equipment.

runway safety

Milwaukee General Mitchell: on tarGet for rsa deadline

By Laura Morland


faa’s runway safety area (rsa) program, which targets bringing

non-standard rsas into compliance by the congressionally mandated

2015 deadline, is one of numerous initiatives the agency has launched to improve airfield safety.

an rsa — the clear, graded rectangular area surrounding a runway

— is intended “to provide a measure of safety in the event of an aircraft’s excursion from the runway by significantly reducing the extent of personal injury and aircraft

damage during overruns, undershoots and veer-offs,” as defined by Faa’s order 5200.8.

according to a recent audit conducted by DoT’s inspector General, more than 70 percent of priority rsas have been improved since 2000. Despite these ongoing improvements, 75 aircraft incidents have occurred at airports with non-standard rsas since 2000.

milwaukee’s General mitchell international airport provides a success story of a part 139 airport taking the necessary steps to meet the 2015 congressional compliance deadline. in fact, the airport plans to bring the safety areas of two of its

runways into compliance with Faa design criteria by 2013 — two years ahead of the congressional mandate.

General mitchell, a medium hub facility that serves southeastern Wisconsin and northern illinois, logged 3.9 million enplanements in 2007 and has experienced steady passenger growth. in addition to the airport’s air carrier, air cargo and general aviation traffic, the airport is also home to the air national Guard’s 128th refueling Wing.

in 2000, General mitchell’s primary and secondary runways, 1l/19r and 7r/25l, respectively, were identified by Faa as

a ccording to FAA, in 2008, 600,000 pilots performed more than 58 million

operations at more than 500 airports with air traffic control towers. In addition to these high aircraft traffic volumes, service vehicles crossing the airfield complicate the situation further. In response, FAA continually undertakes initiatives to ensure that airfield safety is a top priority.

As one initiative, FAA has compiled best management practices, categorized by air traffic controllers, pilots and airport personnel, which are published on its Web site, http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraffic/airports/runway_safety/bestpractices.cfm. Additionally, FAA’s runway safety management strategy now is focusing on pilot outreach, situational awareness and technology. These initiatives include online runway safety courses for pilots, runway safety action teams, and ground movement tracking systems and other sophisticated surface detection systems to alert controllers to potential collisions.

Other FAA initiatives include the Runway Safety Council, a joint effort between FAA and the aviation industry. This council has established a runway safety area program manager in each FAA region; implemented airfield changes to geometry, signage, marking and lighting; and established the RSA program.

Since the late 1980s, FAA’s safety area standards have exceeded International Civil Aviation Organization standards. Until 1999, bringing non-standard RSAs into compliance was not required. The RSA program was established that year after a fatal crash at Little Rock Regional Airport, in which a plane slid off the runway, and went through a fence and down an embankment towards the Arkansas River before colliding with a lighting system tower. The program’s goal is to bring RSAs into compliance with FAA design standards. As part of the program, RSA determinations were made at all Part 139 airports and more than 1,000 non-compliant RSAs were identified. Af

having non-compliant rsas. located about six miles south of downtown milwaukee, mitchell is in a tightly constrained and highly developed urban area. With its airfield bounded by roadways on three sides and a railroad on the fourth, finding a solution to bring its runways into compliance with Faa safety area design standards was a challenge.

planninG and environMental mitchell’s rsa improvement effort began with mead & hunt, inc. performing an alternatives feasibility study, which included more than 20 alternatives. This study was conducted concurrently with a master plan update and part 150 noise study. Developing and evaluating these alternatives required extensive coordination with the airport, its users and Faa. additionally, the county’s plan to widen a highway on the south side required extensive airport coordination with county highway staff.

alternatives evaluated included the use of tunnels, public road realignments and closures, runway shifts and engineered material arresting systems. The fix identified in the environmental assessment for runway 1l/19r, the airport’s 9,690-foot-long primary runway, involves constructing a tunnel to allow College avenue (County Trunk highway ZZ) to pass under the runway’s safety area. The resulting tunnel will accommodate four-lane traffic and pedestrian access. The environmental assessment consisted of traffic studies, preliminary roadway and roadway tunnel designs,

preliminary airfield designs, noise studies, air quality studies, storm water impacts, land acquisition potential, and other potential areas of environmental impact.

For runway 7r/25l, with a length of 8,012 feet, the solution involved shifting the runway approximately 540 feet to the west, which brings the rsas into compliance without impacts to the railroad. The improvement includes an identical shift of runway 7r’s approach and its associated navigational aids, and realignment of a portion of a city of milwaukee road around the west end of runway 7r’s safety area. in addition to providing compliant runway safety areas, the project also clears up a hot spot created by confusing geometry, which was identified by Faa’s runway safety action Team. The solution involves separating runway ends and providing more standard airfield geometry. The environmental process was completed successfully in the summer of 2008, when Faa issued a Finding of no significant impact.

runway safety

public outreachin addition to the comprehensive planning effort and upfront and continual coordination with users and stakeholders, the success of the project’s planning and environmental phases also can be attributed to the outreach program the airport conducts for its projects.

These outreach efforts include meetings and briefings with public officials and city and county technical staff and multiple public workshop-style informational meetings. The public information program for the rsa improvement project included an eight-page mailing to more than 50,000 names in the airport’s vicinity that explained the project and provided clear graphics to help the public understand it. in recognition of these efforts, Faa in 2008

awarded mead & hunt, inc. with an outstanding achievement award for environmental Documentation.

desiGn and constructionThe design for mitchell’s rsa project includes multiple phases of construction to accommodate operational constraints and to provide for Faa funding over a five-year period.

as design continues and construction begins at mitchell, communication and coordination remain paramount to successful execution of the project and ensuring airfield safety. Construction and operational safety plans are being developed with the goal of minimizing operational impacts and maintaining safety at the airport. Clear and proactive outreach to users, including distributing flyers with

project updates, will be conducted throughout construction. The airport requires airfield safety training annually for all contractors working on airport projects.

The anticipated five-year construction schedule for the rsa project in conjunction with other airfield projects will continue to pose challenges for mitchell and its designers. Coordination with local Faa facilities and air traffic control tower staff is seen as vital, since generating awareness of the project is among the best management practices for ensuring safety.

as of this date, mitchell is well on its way to meeting its goal of fully compliant safety areas by 2013. A

The time is right for you to make an intelligent choicewith ASSA electromechanical access control systems.

We make intelligent, flexible and high security lock systems possible.

ASSA C4™ CLIQ™ is an intelligent lock system that combines the best of design and electronics in the smartest possible manner. Each key can easily be upgraded or tailor-made to suit any situation or need. Since every key has its own identity, it becomes the“personal property” of the key holder.

The mechanical design of the key allows you to create different security zones much in thesame manner as a conventional mechanical lock system. Electronic programming of thekeys gives you the option to authorize individuals or to a group of individuals and more.

The basic idea of this technology is to create an intelligent security system. That means a locksystem that retains a high level of security despite upgrading, alterations or expansion.Even after many years of use by a continual flow of new tenants, new employees orchanges occurring in the workplace, the level of security will remain the same.

My 2007 research evaluated the FAA Runway Safety Blueprint 2002-2004 objectives and ranked them in the order of their perceived effectiveness by industry officials.

i compared the five objectives considered by the industry officials to be the most effective and the five considered to be least effective with the results of my 1994 study.

The participants for the 2007 study were some of the largest u.s. airports, major u.s. domestic airlines, and the various aviation trade associations within the

u.s. aviation industry. a representative from each organization was chosen at random and designated to respond to a questionnaire.

The goals of the Faa Runway Safety Blueprint 2002-2004 are consistent with those identified in my 1994 research for all airports and include the following:

• Develop and distribute runway safety education and training materials to controllers, pilots and all other airport users.

• Increase surface safety awareness throughout the

aviation community.• Assess and modify procedures to enhance runway

safety.• Improve runway safety data collection, analysis and

dissemination.• Identify and implement enhancements to improve

surface communications.• Increase situational awareness on the airport surface.• Support and deploy new technologies that reduce the

potential for collision.• Implement site-specific runway safety solutions in

coordination with local aviation communities.

of particular interest in the 1994 study was a comment offered by Capt. mack moore, then-chairman of the airports standards Committee for the air line pilots association (alpa) in response to the survey questionnaire. he stated the following concerning the effectiveness of the airfield smart power initiative, under the broad area of visual aids. “sequenced ground guidance light systems are the most promising of future systems for a number of reasons. First, they serve all aircraft on the airport and can do so in all weather conditions (as long as frozen contaminants do not cover the lights). automated systems will eliminate many, but not all, human error opportunities. automated ground guidance systems are viewed by the international Civil aviation organization (iCao) as a capacity enhancing system for operations in all weather, including excellent visual Flight rule (vFr), as well as a system that will prevent conflicts and incursions.”

overall, in 1994 alpa ranked the broad area of visual aids as the most important step in reducing the number of runway incursions — closely followed by the broad areas of technology and education.

in a similar response to the 2007 survey, Capt. robert perkins, chairman, alpa airport Ground environment Group, stated:

“objective 3 — We agree that the Faa has conducted research on surface operations memory aids, techniques,

tools and training regarding memory limitations, but there has also been no metric applied to determine its

effectiveness. The results appear insignificant.objective 7 — it is very important to implement a

program for foreign air carrier pilot training, but we are not aware this has been implemented.

objective 9 — it is imperative to communicate runway safety concerns to all pilots, including international pilots

as well.objective 21 — There has been very little produced and

implemented as a result of the phraseology Workgroup.objective 27 — The airport diagram issue is significant,

as is the need to keep them current as construction occurs. This factor played a significant role in the lexington, ky., accident in 2006, in which the national aeronautical Charting office chart did not match the current layout. airports must update their data in a timely manner.

objective 33 — moving map technologies are being allowed by the Faa, however, the standard to which they are held is detrimental to their deployment, although we concur that their accuracy is important.”

in the 1994 survey, participants were asked to rate the degree of effectiveness that each initiative in FAA’s Runway Incursion Plan had or would have on reducing the number of runway incursions, using a five point likert-type survey instrument in which 0 represented the least effective and 5 the most effective.

a 96 percent response rate was achieved in the 1994 research. The same type of survey instrument was used to collect data for the 2007 research. in contrast, however, 19 of the 54 participants surveyed in the 2007 research responded, resulting in a 35 percent response rate. The mean for each initiative or objective was then determined. a comparison of the effectiveness of each initiative or objective was then determined by ranking each initiative or objective by its mean to establish the five most effective and the five least effective initiatives or objectives for both the 1994 and 2007 research.

in the 1994 research, the five most effective initiatives were identified by industry officials as: (a) training of ground vehicle operators, with a mean value of 4.42; (b) airport surface detection equipment, with a mean value of 4.30; (c) stop bar lighting, with a mean value of 4.23; (d) airport surface traffic automation, with a mean value of 4.18; and (e) airport movement area safety system (amass), with a mean value of 4.00.

in the 1994 research, the five least effective initiatives were identified by industry officials as: (a) new runway safety database, with a mean value of 2.25; (b) airport technology conference, with a mean value of 1.92; (c) audiotape on runway incursions, with a mean value of 1.76; (d) ground movement safety awareness products, with a mean value of 1.75; and (e) new computerized database for aircraft performance, with a mean value of 1.51.

in the 2007 research, the five most effective objectives were identified by industry officials as: (a) evaluate, and if appropriate, implement national procedures that require read-backs of any clearance to enter a specific runway, hold short of a specific runway, or taxi into position and hold instructions, with a mean value of 4.61; (b) develop and evaluate a visual signal that provides direct warning to flight crews on final approach when

automated systems will eliminate many, but

not all, human error opportunities.

longer a specific objective and asked whether it should be included as an Faa objective. seventeen survey participants (89.5 percent) responded “yes,” while two (10.5 percent) responded “no.”

surface movement safety, guidance and control at major u.s. airports continue to be identified as significant safety issues despite the best efforts put forth by the aviation industry and Faa. aircraft or vehicles continue to travel onto active runways and conflict with aircraft cleared to take off or land on that same runway on a daily basis. Faa initiatives of the 1990s and the objectives of the runway safety Blueprint continue to focus in several main areas, which include (a) procedures in the cockpit and the control tower; (b) awareness of the runway incursion problem; (c) signs, markings, and lighting on airports; and (d) improvements in technology

that assist in the simplification of surface traffic movement.

however, several important areas have been overlooked by Faa that need to be added in the runway safety Blueprint objectives to adequately address the runway incursion problem. These include funding for automatic Dependent surveillance Broadcast (aDs-B) in, as well as aDs-B out, to transmit surface conflict warning directly to pilots, and the training of ground vehicle operators, including training of aircraft tug and tow operators that re-position aircraft on a daily basis.

Finally, there is a significant difference in the range of effectiveness values noted in the 1994 survey versus the range noted in the 2007 survey. That difference may indicate that Faa has been successful identifying objectives that are more effective in reducing runway incursions in the Faa safety

Blueprint of 2002-2004 as compared with the runway incursion action plan developed and implemented in the 1990s.

The range of the 1994 study was from 4.42, the most effective initiative, to 1.51, the least effective initiative. The range of the 2007 study is from 4.61, the most effective initiative, to 4.43, the least effective initiative. This may be an indication that the overall benefits of the objectives identified in the Faa safety Blueprint of 2002-2004 are more effective overall in reducing the number of runway incursions than the initiatives adopted by Faa in the runway incursion action plan of the 1990s.

t he city of phoenix aviation Department’s Geographic information system (Gis),

accessible through the airport’s Gis Web portal, allows up to 200 simultaneous users at phoenix sky harbor international to access the data-rich system and provides business tools to manage the airport’s operations and growing number of assets.

already one of the 10 busiest airports in the world with 1,500 flights, 100,000 passengers and 700 tons of cargo daily, phoenix sky harbor generates an economic impact of more than $90 million a day for the metropolitan area.

“Before 2007, data on interior and exterior assets were maintained in several systems, which weren’t always compatible,” explained michael youngs, the aviation department’s Gis program manager. “if someone asked a basic question like ‘how many fire extinguishers do we service?’ there was no easy way to answer that.”

recognized the need for an enterprise-class information system to support changes from planned development. We were confident that with these increased efficiencies, Gis would pay for itself over time.”

phoenix sky harbor international currently is developing the phX sky Train, which by 2013 will begin transporting passengers to and from the airport, reducing the number of vehicles, easing traffic and curb congestion and providing a seamless connection with the regional light rail system.

“We saved on startup costs for the train project because we provided engineers with digital terrain models, contour data and orthophoto imagery from the Gis,” youngs explained, “so they didn’t have to collect that data again.”

data readily availableThe enterprise Gis developed by Woolpert is one of the largest airport Gis programs in the nation and houses an abundance of data, sophisticated technology and reengineered business processes. This includes:

• new aerial photography and

digital orthophotos (6-inch pixel resolution surrounding the airport and 3-inch pixel resolution within the airport operations area);

• above-ground features at 1”=50’ scale detail and underground utility data, plus attribution;

• a geo-database design with 300 feature classes, from smoke detectors and passenger assistance monitors to noise contours and 3-D roof prints;

• interior floor plan data and attribution for buildings in and around the airport, collected via floor plan surveys and computer-aided design (CaD) drawing conversions;

• the intranet GIS viewing portal based on Gis designer/developer esri’s arcGis server technology;

• integration with many existing information systems; and

• 10 servers in multiple clustered environments, which provide performance, reliability and availability, including a redundant failover system at a remote location in case of system outages.

about 85 unique users from the department’s 10 divisions — who are neither Gis specialists nor technicians — access the portal weekly to:

• review or plan maintenance work orders;

• check interior space measurements and calculate rates for tenants;

• create area maps with aerial images showing existing conditions and planned improvements;

• insert maps into slide presentations for management; and

• output maps and data for internal and external reporting.

if users can’t obtain information in self-serve mode from the portal, they can submit requests to the Gis group for custom maps and reports. on the front line is Jamie ritchie, the department’s Gis coordinator, who supervises five Gis technicians. user requests, about 16 per month, typically involve oversized, data-rich maps or complex queries. “We’re getting repeat requests now, because users understand what we can do for them,” ritchie said.

For example, to assist operations personnel, the Gis group created new emergency evacuation maps, which previously had been difficult to update and reproduce. These maps, complete with exits, assembly areas and varying “you are here” orientations, were saved as pDF files on DvDs, so tenants could print and post maps and share them with employees. “We could produce these because we have very accurate interior building data,” which is atypical for airport Gis programs, youngs said.

airport officials knew Phoenix Sky Harbor needed an enterprise GIS — not a departmental GIS

housed within a single division that would start small and then some day “grow up.”

They knew it had to be designed, developed and operated like any other enterprise IT system — with an enterprise architecture and an enterprise approach in mind.

That meant integration with existing information systems, sophisticated security, 24/7 availability and plenty of redundancy. Further, the GIS had to serve the needs of the entire aviation department — not just a division or two. Here’s an overview of elements that make up the city of Phoenix Aviation Department’s GIS.

COMPREHENSIVE DATA DEVELOPMENTSince most existing datasets were either outdated or didn’t meet accuracy standards, Woolpert had to create most datasets, including aerial photography, digital orthophotos and above ground features, and collect detailed interior data. Utility and other interior data, plus the airport layout plan, 3-D airspace and noise contour data, were converted from existing sources. Although the GIS data were developed before the FAA Advisory Circular on Spatial Data (150/5300/18b) was issued, it is largely compliant with the new standard.

SYSTEMS Multiple servers. These are needed to update software or add applications: two development, four test and four production servers. These provide redundancy and a robust deployment environment for upgrades.

Storage access network (SAN). GIS data is stored on this separate server farm to ensure reliability and system response time.

Server clustering and failover. If a server fails, another server will take over automatically.

Comprehensive testing of all releases. Unit, performance and operational tests are performed before any update.

Strict procedures for deploying software upgrades in a controlled manner. Once testing is complete, all deployment is staged through a comprehensive change-control process.

ENTERPRISE SOFTWAREArcGIS Server. This serves the system out to simultaneous users.

Oracle Enterprise with Spatial. This enterprise database provides clustering ability and automated failover.

ArcSDE. This is the interface between ArcGIS Server and the Oracle database.

Web deployment. This lets internal users access the GIS via a Web browser.

Desktop ArcGIS and FME. FME software, integrated into the server-based portal, converts data from other formats to the geodatabase (Desktop ArcGIS).

To assist personnel in the airport’s fiscal management department division, the Gis group completed a space accounting and reconciliation project. “in one day, we generated maps and reports identifying discrepancies in actual versus leased square footage,” youngs explained.

“Without the Gis, this would have been labor

intensive with a wheel and tape measure and taken a month or longer,” youngs added.

daily business operationsa critical application for Gis portal users is the Gis interface with the phoenix aviation Department’s work-order management system. When a maintenance worker must

replace air conditioning equipment, for example, he or she goes through the portal to find the exact location, as well as other nearby equipment due for maintenance, so that the activities can be combined.

“uniting the Gis with the work-order management system allows us to plan efficiently, and it’s just one way the Gis is saving money,” youngs said.

another Gis custom application helps users manage airfield signage. employees now access signage locations and images through the portal, plan and track maintenance, and generate reports to show compliance with Faa standards.

geographic data when addressing calls. “We’re now considered the official source of data for airport police and fire dispatch,” newman said.

in development is a project planning tool that will allow users to add a proposed project location to the Gis, then query the system and run reports to detect potential conflicts, such as affected utilities and other projects planned in that area.

“We often have multiple projects being completed at the same time here at sky harbor,” said Director Danny murphy. “This tool will give us a way to better communicate and transfer project data from one group to another.”

more business tools are planned. “our goal is to produce a tool for every business function at the airport that relies on location information,” murphy said.

MaintaininG Gis datasuccess in enterprise Gis is all about execution. at phoenix sky harbor, that meant operating practices had to change before the Gis was implemented. aviation department workflows were revamped so that changes in the field — new construction, retrofits, maintenance and tenant improvements — now are intercepted, captured and funneled to the Gis technicians, the “heart and soul of the data maintenance operation,” ritchie said. The technicians update the Gis daily; most changes are completed within days, or at most within a week or two.

The Gis group conducts random field checks, using Gps and surveying equipment, and audits interior spaces to verify data on converted CaD drawings. employees who observe an update, such as an airfield light not captured in the Gis, can use the system’s red-line tool to identify the change, so it can be validated in the field and included in the Gis.

spreadinG the wordyoungs and ritchie train employees on portal navigation and procedures for requesting custom maps and reports. youngs routinely gives project updates to management at all levels. “We continue to show everyone what the capabilities are and keep our customers engaged and excited,” youngs said. “Because this is a significant investment, i’m involved in ongoing justification of the project’s value.”

in the coming years, the enterprise Gis at sky harbor will be integrated with airport operations at even higher levels. “We’ve only scratched the surface,” newman said. “Gis will be an increasingly important tool in asset management, facilities management and long-term planning.” A

aaae, born in the early days of aviation in 1928 with a gathering of 10 airport directors, has

developed into one of the largest and most influential associations in Washington. Bolstered by more than 3,000 airport members representing some 850 airports, aaae is the largest airport association in the world, and it ranks in the top 1 percent of professional trade associations in terms of budget and staff size.

While aaae’s growth over the last eight-plus decades is notable, the goal of the organization has never been to get bigger simply for the sake of doing so. rather, the goal established by generations of exceptional airport leaders has been to grow aaae in order to better serve airport executives by providing ever-improving products, services and Washington representation. simply put, aaae’s goal remains to deliver for airport executives.

aaae delivers for airport executives


federal affairs teams: delivering experienced washington representation aaae’s airport legislative alliance (ala) delivers results on Capitol hill on key funding and policy issues. over the past decade, aaae and the ala staff have led efforts that have resulted in: a doubling of the size of the airport improvement program, a 50 percent increase in the federal cap on passenger Facility Charges; $2.1 billion in airport-specific stimulus funding set-aside in 2009, and the defeat of repeated attempts to expand the reach of Faa and Tsa into areas traditionally controlled by airports.

The aaae Transportation security policy (Tsp) Department provides dedicated interaction with Dhs and Tsa, as well as with other federal agencies responsible for homeland security policy. The Tsp staff enjoys a well-earned reputation for knowledge and effectiveness in Washington, D.C., and for its efforts to keep airports up-to-date on federal security policy.

The aaae regulatory affairs team stays on top of the latest regulatory developments affecting airports by focusing on key agencies, including DoT, Faa and the environmental protection agency. The experienced staff helps give airports a strong voice in the federal regulatory process.

on-site training, elearning and More: delivering training and professional development The patented interactive employee Training (ieT) system has delivered more than 1 million sessions to more than 300,000 industry employees, keeping records along the way to allow airports to comply with federal regulations on training and recordkeeping.

more than 3,100 users at 200 subscribing airports log into anTnDigicast.com and conduct training, anytime, anywhere, using only a computer and an internet connection. aaae is a leader in all aspects of electronic, or elearning.

aaae’s on-site training is customizable to meet any size airport’s needs. experienced instructors come to your facility to maximize your budget and minimize staff time disruption.

Meetings: delivering unparalleled business development opportunities

aaae manages approximately 100 professional conferences and training programs each year on topics as varied as aviation security, legislative affairs, air service marketing, environmental issues, runway safety, airport finance, airport engineering and construction, airport legal issues and more. aaae meetings provide invaluable information, training and networking opportunities to nearly 15,000 airport professionals annually. aaae and its affiliate organization the international association of airport executives also play a key role internationally with meetings held around the world. aaae international airport conferences create the ideal environment for top-level u.s. and international airport executives to share and exchange information within an ever-changing global aviation industry.

tsc, iet, digicast and More: delivering innovative solutions

Faced with strict mandates following 9/11, aaae created the Transportation security Clearinghouse (TsC) to more efficiently process criminal history background checks for aviation workers. in less than eight years, the TsC has handled more than 4.5 million biometric and biographical background


aaae leadership: a culture of success and achievement

The aaae executive Committee and Board of Directors hold direct responsibility for establishing the policy and direction of the association with additional insight and input provided by the policy review Committee. The aaae Board of Directors is elected by the membership to represent their interests, and the men and women who hold these key leadership roles reflect the strength of aaae as an organization with service at airports of all sizes and in all parts of the country. The gifted volunteer leaders who have served over aaae’s more than eight decades deserve immense credit for establishing the unique culture of aaae that places a premium on action, accomplishment, innovation and success. Thanks to the wisdom and foresight of these remarkable men and women, aaae is well situated to continue delivering for airport executives for generations to come.

checks for aviation workers, saving the industry millions of dollars in costs and countless hours of lost time on the job.

on the training front, aaae has delivered a set of computer-based training tools to deliver valuable instruction to airport workers, including customizable interactive employee Training systems, Web-based anTn

Digicast, the newly developed eCisTm, a learning management system customized for the airport environment, and the pay-by-lesson arFF training series. aaae offers a variety of flexible products that meet the needs – and regulatory requirements – of airports large and small.
