AIRPORT STRUCTURES
1. Airport organizational structure
Airport is a transport enterprise intended for air transportation of passengers
and cargoes. It consists of landside and airside areas. Landside area includes park-
ing lots, tank farms,
access roads, traffic
control service, air station itself, and etc. Airside area comprises all
areas accessible to aircraft, i.e. runways,
taxiways, ramps, tank
farms and others.
Access from
landside areas to airside ones is tightly controlled at most airports.
Passengers on com-
mercial flights access airside areas through terminals, where they can purchase
64 Section 5: Transport Management
tickets, clear security, check or claim luggage. Passengers can board aircraft
through gate. The waiting areas for passengers are called concourses. This term is
often used instead of terminal.
Airports depend on air traffic density and available facilities. Many airports
have air traffic control located in tower. Such airports are called towered airports.
Airports with international flights have customs and immigration facilities.
International flights often require a higher level of physical security; in recent
years many countries have adopted the same level of security not only for
international but for domestic flights.
2. Passengers and cargoes complexes
Passengers complex of an airport regards to landside area intended to serve
passengers and their luggage (baggage). The complex includes various services,
such as: aviation agencies, passenger transportation service, security service,
luggage service, customs, immigration, boundary services, different rest,
entertainment facilities, restaurants and cafes, magazines and newspaper shops,
souvenirs and duty-free shops, etc.
Cargo complex is responsible for performing the following services: loading / unloading operations with luggage, cargoes and mails. The complex is
equipped with covered heated warehouses, delivery facilities, mechanical loading /
unloading facilities, cargo handling facilities both in bulk and containers.
3. Management structure
The chief manager of an airport is the general manager. He or, sometimes
she, is responsible for the overall activities of the whole airport areas. The general
manager has several deputies who are in charge of particular department.
Departmental head of traffic control service is in charge of air traffic, but the
service doesn’t subordinate to the general manager of the airport.
Meteorological service monitors the weather forecast and climate conditions
and transmits the information to the different airside area services.
Departmental head of cargo handling service is responsible for organizing
commercial cargo transportation and passenger luggage.
The last two subordinate to the general manager of the airport. But in
extreme situation (acts of terrorism, natural disaster or political revolution) all of
them have to work in close connection with each other to make flights more safety
and convenient.

Ex. 35 Read the text “Conquering the Two Tempests” (8 min.) and render
its content in Russian.
CONQUERING THE TWO TEMPESTS
At the beginning of the 90s when the Russian aviation design bureaus that
had traditionally been involved with military design work started re-orientating
themselves to civil projects after a sizable cut-down in the state budget financing.
Of particular attention were general purpose aviation programs. Small four- or sixseat aircraft in fact could be of good use as a transport means for entrepreneurs, as
an air taxi or a light cargo carrier. In 1992 the designers of the Taganrog aviation
research and technical center after G. M. Beriev presented their version of such
airplane.
Contrary to other similar level and class products the Taganrog designers
offered the amphibian capable of taking off from both natural surfaced runways
and water surface of a small river, a lake or a sea bay. Such aircraft named BE-103
fitted with two piston engines with the total capacity of 210 hp each was
designated for carrying up to five passengers or 400 kg cargo to the areas hardly
accessible for any other transport means and having many water basins. Under a
small adjustment of the construction and equipment the design allowed for
industrial production of different modifications, for sanitary, patrol or
administrative purposes, etc. With regard to the fact that the initially estimated co st of BE-103 was much
smaller than that of their western counterparts the future of this airplane seemed
bright then.
The states with a developed network of lakes and rivers like Canada, the
Scandinavian states and the Asia Pacific Region states were seen as potential
customers. In the CIS it seemed small air companies operating in the remote areas,
the customs and the border guard service, the fishery and the fire inspectorate
could buy that. The Russian market alone was estimated at over 600 units.
Thanks to the fact that BE-103 was being created in the state aviation
industry its developers managed to have conducted a large-scale survey of the
design optimal parameters by using the wind tunnel tests and comprehensive
calculations.
