Large sheds erected on airport for housing & repairing airplanes. It may be storage or service hangers.Slide12Slide13Slide14Slide15
Visual Flight Rules (VFR)Means the weather conditions are good enough for the aircraft to be operated by visual reference to the ground. In VFR conditions, there is no “ on route traffic control” and aircraft are allowed to fly on a “see & be seen” principle. Slide16
Instrument Flight Rules (IFR)Conditions prevails when the visibility or the ceiling falls below those prescribed for flight under visual flight rules.Essentially these rules require the assignment of specific altitude and routes and minimum separation of aircraft at the same altitude and flying in the same direction.Slide17
TaxiwaysDefined parked path for taxiing aircraft to & from the runwayObject is to provide access to the aircraft for runway to Terminal areas & service hangers.Should not cross runway.Slide18Slide19
