In this class, you have been studying airport design including airside and landside portions of an airport. For your research report, you were to construct your own airport. Your paper should have: • a table of contents, • abstract, • description of the airport, • drawings of your final airport layout design, and • a summary. References and current APA format should be used. Follow closely the criteria provided. Your Research Report is worth 100 points and 20% of your final grade. Content Requirements: You have been designated by the FAA to come up with a plan for the development of a runway (or multiple runways) and corresponding taxiways for new traffic that will be starting soon in your metropolitan area. You have the following specifics required for design and development: Prevailing winds: 093 degrees 75% of time 140 degrees 20% of time Calm Rest of time Type of Aircraft: 767-300ER is the largest Obstructions: Compost 3 miles east o
Research and respond to the following two questions. (One page for each)
For the sake of looking into the regulations for a maintenance item, say in FAR 121.701(a), http://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/text-idx?node=14:3.0.1.1.7.22.3.11&rgn=div8, would a crew be in violation if they were flying an airplane without a compass correction card?
Review the Minimum Equipment List (MEL) entry for the magnetic compass (see the attached file). Do you feel this is/is not a grounding item and what action should the FAA take?

How has the air transportation system evolved from world War 1 to the 21st century?
Aviation Security in Air Traffic Services
1-Goal (this should be a succinct statement of your goal for this project)
2-Glider Information (this section should include your research into gliding in general and balsa wood gliders in particular. You should use this research opportunity to investigate what makes a successful long range glider. You do not have to present a specific design in the paper, only the research that will guide your preliminary design.)
3-CAD program (if you have access to and know how to use one), Microsoft Paint, Microsoft Word (Draw Tools), or by hand (very neatly using a straight edge.)
4-5-Glider must fit in an 18”x18”x6” box
