You should be familiar with evaluating the needs of an airport and the funding options required to meet these needs. Because airports are public entities and provide a service to their community, there is often a lot of media articles covering these issues. It is important for airport officials to inform and educate their communities on what is needed at their airport in order to meet their aviation needs. You will often see pro and con articles that discuss these issues from varying viewpoints. For this assignment, conduct a literature search for a recent article related to airport financing. Evaluate the airport and what it wants to do, and then evaluate the pros and cons of the article to see how it impacts the airport’s intentions. Do the article and the writer meet the credibility test, and is the article valid for readers to gain correct information on the issue? Ensure that you discuss the various funding programs and complex relationships that exist at airports.
