Terminal Area Forecasts, Fiscal Years 1981-1992,

Abstract

This document presents forecasts of key aviation activity measures for 906 airports including 330 radar approach control facilities through the fiscal year 1992. These forecasts are prepared to meet the planning needs of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) offices and services concerned with future traffic levels at these facilities. Except for specific regional requests, the airports selected for inclusion in this publication meet at least one of the following criteria: Existing FAA tower; Candidate for an FAA tower; Currently receiving or forecast to receive certificated route air carrier or scheduled passenger commuter service; or Any general aviation airport that will exceed 60,000 itinerant or 100,000 total operations annually by 1982. The Terminal Area (TAF) report is organized in two sections. The first part is a general summary. It includes summary highlights, the introduction, a brief overview of the forecast methodology, and a series of summary tables. Part Two contains the forecast for each airport. The airport data include summary information for the facility followed by four years of historical data and annual projections for fiscal years (FY) 1981 through 1992. In some cases, a comment about current or planned aviation activity at the airport is included. The summary indicates the airport's tower/nontower status, number of hours the tower is operated daily, and the number of aircraft based at the airport.
