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.
is defined as a location or a place where passengers and cargo/freight gather for controlled and scheduled dispersal.
airport
is the strip of a heavily paved area where airplanes use for take-
off and landing.
runway
It is what connects the runways to the other airport components such as the passenger terminal, apron, or parking. For some airports, the taxiway is used for changing from one runway to another
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.
airside operation
one of the most crucial activities on the airside of airports is?
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
