Economic Implications of a United States Supersonic Transport Aircraft upon Airports and Enroute Support Services: Volume II. Airports and Terminals.

摘要

The economic impact of advanced high-capacity airliners upon the ground-environment--airports and terminals--is examined in this volume. The modifications required to achieve compatibility with each of the four airliners: stretched subsonic (DC-8-63), high-capacity subsonic (B-747), Concorde, United States SST which will enter commercial service up to 1975 are defined for selected airports, and the costs of the aircraft-sponsored improvements are estimated.
