am sincerely appreciative of the many public and private institutions that have provided resource material from which I was able to shape this text. In this regard, I am particularly indebted to the Federal Aviation Administration for their numerous publications. Faculty and students at University Aviation Association institutions who have reviewed material in the previous four editions have significantly shaped this book. To them I owe a special thanks because they represent the true constituency of any textbook author | Fifth Edition Airport Planning Management Airport Planning Management This page intentionally left .
