PROBLEMS OF MEDIUM SIZED AIRPORTS

Summaries are presented of papers on finance, economic management and terminal design. The paper on finance reviews the various sources of revenue, available to an airport and the different categories of cost and concludes that capital investment should be financed by loans accompanied by the annuity method of depreciation. A paper on economics presented a step-by-step guide to the critical processes needed in order to bring about a review of the management system. The art of extending a terminal without interupting the flow of traffic too greatly is described in another paper which used the Marseilles/Marignane airport as illustration.
