each student must submit a paper.
This paper is
mandatory
meaning a final course grade of F will be received for this course if
it
is not
submitted.
You may, ho
wever, collaborate with just
one
other student in the class when making
your calculations. If you choose to collaborate with another student, you and the other student
must make
a statement at the end of the
paper which states that “I collaborated with
–
student
name
–
on this paper”.
1.
Conduct an inventory of and d
ocum
ent the existing conditions at
Deer Valley
Airport
,
Phoenix
,
Arizona
.
2.
Develop a forecast of total annual demand for the airport using a trend analysis.
3.
Determine hourly capacity, hourly dela
y and annual service volume for Deer Valley
Airport u
sing the
short

. This methodology is also
provided in Chapter 5 of your course textbo
ok.
4.
Document your findings in a written paper.
5.
Submit
your word

role
or
classification
in the NPIAS
.
You may include
brief history of the airport
, figures
and other
background information

HISTORICAL AVIATION A
C
TIVITY
This section should descri
be the types and levels of aviation activity
at the airport over
the past
20 years
. It shoul
d include tables and figures as
appropriate
.
The
tabulated
data should
include the number of
based aircraft, the number of
annual airport operations and the split
between
air carrier,
air taxi
, general aviation and military operations
as applicable.
As a
minimum,
20
years of historical data should be provided.
Sources
of data
include:
FAA ATADS at
http://aspm.faa.gov/opsnet/sys/Main.asp?force=atads
1.5
ANNUAL OPERATIONS, ADPM, PEAK HOUR FORECASTS
This section should include a forecast of total annual operations for Deer Valley Airport for the
years 2014 through to 2025 using a trend analysis.
Your t
rend analysis should be based on the
20 years of data. In addition, develop forecast for the Average Day Peak Month and Peak Hour
operation in the years 20
15
and 202
0
.
In the Year 20
15
the peak month
will be
March and is
9.5 percent of annual operations.
In addition,
peak hour operations are
6
percent
of operations
during the average day of the peak month. In the Year 202
0
the peak month
will also be
March
and is 9.3 percent of annual operations
and peak hour operations are
5.5
percent
of operations
dur
ing the average day of the peak month.
1.6
HOURLY CAPACITY
This section should report on the determination of hourly capacity for the airport
for the years
2020 and 2025
.
The Airport will close Runway

, below,
in the
Year 2025
for
reconstruction.
Expl
ain why
there
are
differences
in hourly capacity
between
the five
runway
–
use
configurations.
To complete this section you will need to determine the
separation between
the runways and the
available runway exit locations
measured
as distance from threshold
in
google earth.
.
The runway
–
use configurations and the percent of the time they are used are shown
in the
tables below for the future Years 2020 and 2025. The arrows pointing towards a runway end
indicate arrivals on that threshold and those pointing away from a runway indicate the direction
of departures from the runway.

Planning/ Technical
Report Writing
1.
Write in concise clear sentences.
C
heck your spelling and grammar and read your
sentences out loud to ensure they make sense.
2.
Cite your sources within your text.
For example: “According to the Bureau of E
conomic
Analysis
(BEA)
, the population of Brevard County will grow at a rate of 1.5 percent over
the
next ten years.”
3.
Do not use abbreviations within the main body of the document. For example,
the
symbol for feet or
the
abbreviation ft.
should not be us
ed.
W
rite out the word feet.
Similarly, symbols such as % should be written out in full as percent.
Symbols in Tables
are acceptable if there insufficient space for the full text.
4.
You may use acronyms in
the main body of the report
.
However, the
y shou
ld be fully
defined
the first time they are used
.
Do not assume the reader knows what they s
tand
for. For instance: Medium
–
Intensity Approach Lighting System with Runway Alignment
Indicator Lights (MALSR).
After defining the acronym it may be then used
in subsequent
text.
5.
When using single digit numbers in the main body of the text write out the number and
place the number itself in brackets. For example: “
I
n 2010, the airport had three (3)
active FBOs.
If your sentence starts with a number, write out
the number regardless of
the number of digits.
6.
Read other planning study reports to see how information is written out or expressed.
