There is evidence that the flight/aircraft mix developed is very seriously flawed. How this is verified/disavowed, or is it used?
We believe this question concerns the aircraft fleet mix submitted in the countys environmental assessment for formal departure procedures for turbojet aircraft. This document, describing the potential environmental effects of the departure procedures, was not prepared by the master plan project team. For master planning purposes, the fleet or aircraft mix using an airport refers to the percentage of based aircraft and/or total takeoffs and landings by basic aircraft type (e.g., single engine, multi-engine, turboprop, jet, helicopter). To prepare the facility requirements forecast, a basic fleet mix will be prepared for these aircraft categories. Detailed and specific fleet mix forecasts by aircraft make and model are not required nor included in the scope of work for the master plan.
