6.8.1 apron/Tie Down Area <br />Ground space must be allocated for outside storage <br />of aircraft which includes space for based air - <br />::raft not stored in hangars and transient aircraft <br />)eing serviced or stored short term. Space <br />allowances are 300 square yards per based aircraft <br />.and 360 square yards for transient aircraft. <br />a) onq-term tie down area <br />t is assumed that all based aircraft will desire <br />angars. There will be times, however, when funds <br />re unavailable to construct hangars to meet <br />emand or a temporary lack of demand to justify <br />angar development. Also, a certain percentage of <br />ircraft owners will choose not to pay the higher <br />ates for new hangar storage. <br />t is reasonable that 20% of based aircraft will <br />require long-term tie down space. Tie down <br />requirements thus are forecast as follows: <br />1984 1990 1995 2005 <br />Total Based Aircraft 12 25 35 52 <br />Number of Long-term Tie <br />Dowrs 2 5 7 10 <br />Ramp bequirements (SF) 5,400 13,500 18,900 27,000 <br />(SY) 600 1,500 2,100 3,000 <br />b) 4ransient and Operations Ramp <br />Space for transient (visiting) aircraft, fueling <br />and other short-term parking can essentially be <br />related to itinerant aircraft movements. On a <br />peak day a reasonable assumption is that 70% of <br />the itinerant traffic will be visiting aircraft. <br />This traffic will, for the most part, arrive and <br />depart the same day, and it is assumed that 50% of <br />the visiting aircraft will be on the ground at the <br />same time. An additional allowance must be made <br />for short-term parking of based aircraft. This <br />allowance is five percent of all based aircraft. <br />Tae itinerant ramp requirements needed for a peak <br />day using the forecast data previously discussed <br />are as follows: <br />6-6 <br />
