Airport Issues
Airport operators and tenants have many opportunities and challenges. There are a variety of government funding sources that can improve the safety and economic viability of an airport. However, in return for these funds, airports must give grant assurances, promising not to discriminate among users, making the airfield a fair economic playing field.
