Presentation Transcript

  1. Aircraft classifications • Aircraft classifications are useful in airport engineering work (including terminal gate sizing, apron and taxiway planning, etc.) and in air traffic analyses • Most of the airport design standards are related to aircraft size (i.e., wingspan, aircraft length, aircraft wheelbase, aircraft seating capacity, etc.)

  2. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Aircraft Design Group (ADG) Classification

  3. Aircraft Design Group (ADG) Classification

  4. FAA Aircraft Approach Speed Classification(AAC )

  5. Taxiway Design Group (TDG) • Previous FAA guidance considered tail height and wingspan as design factors for geometric design • Dimensions of the aircraft undercarriage are also important in geometric design • New guidance for taxiway design considers Main gear Width (MGW) and Cockpit to Main gear

  6. FAA AC 150/5300-13 Appendix 1
