AIRPORTS IN INDIA
An airport is a facility with land and buildings for aircraft to land, take off, and be maintained. It includes runways, taxiways, and aprons for aircraft, as well as terminals for passengers and cargo. Airports are equipped with services like hangars, refueling, maintenance facilities, control towers, and passenger accommodations like waiting areas and baggage claim.
Key Components of an Airport
- Airside: This includes the operational areas for aircraft, such as runways, taxiways, and parking areas.
- Landside: This is the passenger-focused area, including the terminal building, which contains check-in counters, security screening, waiting lounges, and baggage claim areas.
- Runways: These are the long, paved surfaces where aircraft land and take off. They are often equipped with lighting systems to assist pilots in low visibility.
- Control Tower: This is the building that houses air traffic controllers, who manage the movement of aircraft on the ground and in the air.
- Hangars: These are buildings used for housing, maintaining, and repairing aircraft.
- Terminals: These buildings house passenger facilities like check-in, security, and waiting areas. The area where passengers board or disembark is also part of the terminal.
Additional Features
- Cargo facilities: Airports have areas and buildings dedicated to handling cargo, which can include storage and loading facilities.
- Security systems: Modern airports employ various security measures, such as CCTV, X-ray baggage systems, and trained personnel, to ensure the safety of passengers and aircraft.
- Navigation aids: Airports use electronic devices and lighting systems, such as instrument landing systems and approach lights, to help pilots navigate and land safely.
