  7. Airport Land Use Planning Overview California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook Airspace Compatible Land Use FAA Part 77 “Imaginary Surfaces”

  8. Airspace surfaces may be larger than you think! FAA Part 77 and FAA Design Surfaces

  9. Airspace surfaces may be larger than you think! FAA Part 77 and FAA Design Surfaces • Surfaces vary in size dependent many factors: • Aircraft weight • Approach speed • Approach Minimums • Types of approach (vertical or non-vertical guidance) • Examples • Approach Surfaces: • Lengths Range 5,000-50,000 ft. • Widths Range 1,250 ft.-16,000 ft. • Slopes of Surface 20:1 to 50:1 • Departure Surface: 10,000 ft. long

  10. Why is Compatible Land Use Important? • Required by Federal Grant Assurances (Commonly No. 20 and 21)

  11. Why is Compatible Land Use Important? – cont. • Protect people on the ground. • Protect people in the air - airport users • Minimizes the costs of expansion • Protect the usefulness of the airport • Lost opportunity of expansion due to encroachment • Encourage Development

  12. When to plan for Compatible Land Use?

  13. Height Restrictions Part 77 surfaces have a large footprint, but allowable heights increase dramatically outside the immediate vicinity of the airport Height map considers ground elevation and provides approximate allowable height

  14. Land Use Land Use Zones Six zones based on: Accident statistics Types of aircraft operations expected Example: Prohibit homes and hospitals near runway ends and other areas that experience greater potential for accidents.
