  •   The flexibility of in-flight maneuvers allows these aircraft to perform aerobatics or special stunts, such as rolls and loops. They are often used in air shows.
    Acrobatic airplane
  • They are multi- engine and propeller driven. Pomroy (2016) added that they are typically used for short- distance travel to and from small airports with short runways.
    commuter airplanes
  • These aircraft may not have been fully proven in flight, They may be amateur-built or kit-built aircraft. They are sometimes unmanned or used for light sport. It is further explained in Experimental Aircraft (n.d.) that these aircraft are typically used for experimental aircraft for research and development, crew training, exhibitions, air racing, or surveys.
    experimental airplanes
  • It is given a special airworthiness certificate for operations. Some classify two-seat ultralight-type aircraft, powered parachutes, antiques, and classics airplanes, the composite aircraft as LSA. According to an article from EA Airventure, getting a sport aircraft certificate is half the time faster and the regular pilot license
    Light Sport Aircraft
  • These airplanes are usually military surplus planes
    limited airplanes
  • Airplanes in this category are given special airworthiness certificates. They have to be built in compliance with the production certificate. On the technical side, they have three or fewer seats and are typically unpressurized
    primary airplanes
  • used for agriculture and other services such as surveying, weather control, and forest services. When forest fires happen in countries like the United States, firefighters use these airplanes to help stop the spread of the disaster.
    restricted airplanes
  • These planes can also be used for aerobatics. These aircraft have a maximum of nine passengers plus pilot seats. The takeoff weight should not be more than 12,500 pounds.
    utility airplanes
  • Give the different types of aircraft

    taxiway
  • It is the area when airplanes park in front of the terminal. This is where
    airplanes can load and unload passengers and cargo
    apron
  • Are connected to taxiways for easy access for airplanes. as a structure where the aircraft is repaired or serviced
    Hangar
  • Can be likened to a nervous system. It is where air traffic controllers monitor and control the landing and take-off of aircraft within its zone.
    Control tower
  • This is the area where airport personnel leave their cars while they do their day's work. Here is where passengers can also park their cars.
    parking
  • is the first point of contact in the destination.
    terminal building
  • is where passengers travel documents are processed. This is where immigration interviews are done

    departure are/level
  • is where passengers claim their checked-in baggage and go thru Customs if needed.
    arrival area/level
  • passengers arriving at an airport have not yet reached their final destination and must transfer to connecting flight. These passengers normally wait in a specially designated area of the airport called?
    transit areas
  • Common to most in airports is the check-in area where passengers present themselves and their proof of reservations. This can be a printout of the e-ticket or a digital copy
    at the departure level/area
  • the first airline to implement online check- in and was the first to use the internet as a platform in 1999
    alaska airlines
  • Passengers checked-in bags are brought to the arrival hall for claiming or distribution. International passengers are required to clear Customs once checked-in bags are claimed.
    at the arrival level
  • Airline personnel working on the landside operations are generally called?
    ground staff or ground personnel
  • They work in the airfield and the ramp. They make sure the airplane is safe and secure for another flight.

    refueling
  • what are the airside operation?
    refueling, parking the aircraft, Maintenance check, Cargo loading/unloading,
  • are those fees and charges paid by airlines in connection with the operation of flights.
    aeronautical revenues
  • what are examples of aeronautical revenues?
    landing fees, fuel fees, Land lease and terminal rent
  • examples of non aeronautical revenues
    parking, retail concessions, services
  • when was airline industry started?
