This project defines an 'ideal' system of general aviation airports that meets the future air transportation needs of the state. Beginning with a 'clean slate', so to speak, the ideal airport system is identified using methodolgy similar to the methodology used to develop the initial version of the Texas Highway Trunk System. Other criteria is also used. This project examines the question of airport system plan optimization, or rationalization, in a comprehensive context to include such factors as public policy considerations, air transportation as a mode of transportation, community economic vitality and competitiveness, traditional airport system criteria, and access to the system.
