The Other Side of The Airport Airport Support Facilities May 6, 2015

► Passengers don’t care, because they don’t see and don’t understand…until it doesn’t work. ► Support facilities are the airport’s stepchildren – “look at our beauitiful new terminal!” ► But the “Airport Machine” needs all its parts functioning to run well. 2 Airport Support Facilities
3
► Airport Planners don’t consider support facilities integral to airport planning! ► In over 1,100 pages of the two premier airport planning texts, updated in 2010 and 2011, nearly no mention of support facilities, and no planning methodology for those facilities. 3 Airport Support Facilities

► The list isn’t long, but every element is vital to airport operations ► What support facilities are missing from this list? ► The two columns are different. We’ll see why in a minute. 4 Airport Support Facilities Air Cargo Warehouses Package Express Facilities Airport Post Facilities Flight Catering Kitchens Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Maintenance Aircraft Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Flight Training Centers Mobile Phone Lots Rental Car Facilities/Centers On-Airport Hotel On-Airport Petrol Station Air Traffic Control Tower (ACTC) Fuel Farm Fire Stations Operations Control/Data/Emergency Mgmt.

► Which of these facilities could your airport do without? ► If the essential nature of most of those facilities is obvious, why aren’t they getting more attention in planning and design of the airport? 5 Airport Support Facilities Air Cargo Warehouses Package Express Facilities Airport Post Facilities Flight Catering Kitchens Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Maintenance Aircraft Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Flight Training Centers Mobile Phone Lots Rental Car Facilities/Centers On-Airport Hotel On-Airport Petrol Station Air Traffic Control Tower (ACTC) Fuel Farm Fire Stations Operations Control/Data/Emergency Mgmt.

► Remember, the two columns are different. Why? On the left, revenue producers. On the right, not. ► Business vs. Public “utilities and infrastructure” ► But what happens when we sell the airport?!? 6 Airport Support Facilities Air Cargo Warehouses Package Express Facilities Airport Post Facilities Flight Catering Kitchens Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Maintenance Aircraft Maintenance Repair & Overhaul (MRO) Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Flight Training Centers Mobile Phone Lots Rental Car Facilities/Centers On-Airport Hotel On-Airport Petrol Station Air Traffic Control Tower (ACTC) Fuel Farm Fire Stations Operations Control/Data/Emergency Mgmt.
