Abstract and paper topic

Topic #1 Airports

The civil airport that I am going to do my research paper on is the Tampa International Airport (TPA) in Florida. I chose this airport because out of all the major airports I have been too, the Tampa airport was the most impressive. When I say the most impressive, I am regarding the smooth operation, strategic location, cleanliness, and overall performance of the airport. I am going to start my research paper with the history and significance of the airport. Then I will describe the airport owner/operator, the airlines that operate out of the airport and then I will talk about the city of Tampa. This paper will also describe how the TSA oversees security screening of passengers and cargo. After that the paper will identify the government led legal actions taken at the Tampa airport to establish runway use preferences, approach, and departure paths to minimize aircraft noise impact on surrounding communities. Then how the airport deals with assuring that the land surrounding the airport are compatible with aircraft noise and how they protect the surrounding airspace from obstruction by obstacles and what government agency/authority that looks at each of those actions.

With looking into this airport, I will also talk about any major accidents or mishaps that have occurred at the Tampa International Airport or in the vicinity of the area. With looking into accidents and mishaps we will also identify safety issues/concerns with the airport and of the surrounding areas. With safety also comes noise pollution and general safety of the public. Finally, the paper will talk about the airports level of activity, and the major airlines that operate out of the airport. With looking at the air traffic demand, level of activity and the growth of the surrounding area we will be able to make an hypothesis of how sustainable the location is and if the airport is going to be sustainable in the future.
