                    In light of these challenges, this fifth edition is hoped to again be
                 the standard text for those interested in the fundamentals of airport
                 planning and design. The information located within these chapters
                 is applicable both for academic coursework and as a reference on the
                 desks of airport planning and design professionals. As the industry
                 continues to move forward, it is of course recommended that
                 the latest design standards published by the Federal  Aviation
                 Administration, the International Civil Aviation Organization, and
                 local, state, and other federal agencies be consulted.
