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.
