Airport design and operation are always closely related. A poor design affects the airport operations, resulting in increased costs, and a sound understanding of operation is needed to enable good design. The aim of this third edition is to present an updated and integrated approach to the two. The chapters have 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. "Dr Caves and Dr Kazda provide essential guidance for both seasoned and emerging airport professionals. Their in-depth assessment of the challenges faced in airport design and operations is to be commended, reflecting their vast combined experience." - Mike Pearson, Director, Helios "Airport Design and Operation provides a wealth of information that can only lead to improved airport design and operation. The content of this book is valuable providing an opportunity for industry to extract such information and implement in real life. The end result will be improved efficiencies in the transportation sector." - John G. Wensveen, Ph.D., Head of Aviation Technology &amp; Professor, Purdue University, USA "This book provides detailed rules, regulations and practical views for the development and operation of an airport. As well as an interesting read, the book is a must for all people engaged in airport operation and planning." - Peter Mayerhofer, Chief Infrastructure Officer of AMG (Airport Management Group) Kazakhstan

The annual number of airline passengers has continued to increase in the past decade, putting great strain on the airports. Increasing volumes of passengers and freight will continue making demands for expansion of airport facilities and construction of new airports. Traditionally airport design and airport operation have been treated separately, yet they are closely related and influence each other. Poor design adversely affects operation; sound understanding of operation is needed to enable good design.The aim of this book is to present a new and integrated approach to the two. This second edition includes some important changes in the international regulations covering design and operations. It reflects the greater attention being given to security, safety and the environment, together with changes in the technology and the way the air transport industry operates. New sections on collaborative decision making and low visibility operations strengthen the operational character of this book. Two completely new chapters have been added covering the topical problems of cargo and radio navigation aids and the chapter on passenger terminals has been enhanced considerably.
