Describe key factors which explain why large airlines and airports form (consider the
development of flag carriers)?
One of the major consider the development of flag carriers is the competition. Airports and
Airlines like any other business entities, have a duty of making their firms more profitable and
competitive for long period. For example, the British Airways, is regarded as one of the zealous
aviation company by the fact that it has gone ahead to get rid of some of the complimentary
goodies from their clients.
The second factor is to cut-off the cost. In many instances, governments will always help the
development of the flag carriers through fiscal incentives and subsidies (Fageda., 2014).
What are the reasons / factors that encourage some airports to become dominant in their
markets?
According to Dobruszkes (2013) one of the reasons that has helped the airports to remain
dominant is that they not only serve their own cities but other regions.
Secondly, some airports have many connection networks.
As above for airlines? What is the linkage?
Airports cannot fulfil their goals without partnering with the Airlines. This because the planes
can not fly without runways. There must be handling facilities to enable the air carriers to
transport the passengers. Airlines operates in other countries which makes it impossible for the
carriers to prepare all the required facilities therefore, they need the airport to facilitate their
duties (Dursun, O'Connell & Warnock., 2014).

Outline the key achievements of the Chicago Convention that support the safety and
security of the aviation system
 The maintenance and the development of procedures and standards critical to the
activities of the international civil aviation.
 Monitoring the safety indicators and trends through the universal safety audit
 Developing international strategies within the world aviation safety plan.
 Implementing programs focused in addressing the safety and infrastructure within the
global aviation.
 Quick response to the disrupted aviation systems caused by the conflict or natural
disasters.
Why was this convention so significant?
The significant of the Chicago convention was established by 54 countries in 1944 countries with
the key objective to promote, create cooperation, understanding and maintain the friendship
among countries in the world. For example, the major principles of Chicago convention allowed
international transport by the air which led to establishment of specialized agency known as
ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization).
How does SARPS support the aviation system safety and security?
The SARPS is the safety management whose main role is to help the nations to manage the risks
linked to aviation safety through the coordination with their service provider. The organization is

required to support the emergence of the strategies of improving safety. The proactive of these
safety strategies are based on implementing the SSP (State Safety program) that addresses the
risks associated with aviation safety.
Slide 7
What is the concept of Aerotropolis and why is this concept useful for understanding the
aviation system?
Anaerotropolis is a sub-region whose infrastructure, economy and layout centered on airports
which serves as the core of commercial airport city.
Its critical to understanding the Aerotropolis because it incorporates the aviation independent
commercial activities and businesses. The Aerotropolis is also important to understand since
supports a big number of the passengers who use the airport annually (Shen & Cao, 2016).
Slide 8
Describe key factors associated with a FSNC?
 The FSNC operates the schedules at the hubs of the airports which are usually
complimented by the decentralized non-hub flights.
 The full-service net work carrier provides all types of services like catering and the in-
flight entrainments.
 With respect to fleet, FSNC is characterized with various kinds of aircrafts from small to
large aircrafts.
 The geographic region network served by the FSNC includes the European, worldwide
and domestic flights.
