Reviews

J.P. Hanlon One can already envisage the volume being used as a text for a course in Airport Planning (e.g., at M.Sc. level) and also as a research tool for people working in the industry. Altogether this is an excellent book. Everyone with a serious interest in air transport should have a copy on their shelves. It is extremely well referenced and indexed, which renders it user-friendly for both students and practitioners. Journal of Transport Geography Mike Tretheway This book should be a required reading for all airport planners - government and private sector. ... I recommend this book be added to your professional bookshelf. Journal of Air Transport Management
