Regional Airports System Plan
| COMMITTEE |
Since the early 1970s, the MARC has conducted aviation system planning for the general aviation facilities and activity in the region. The MARC Regional Airports System Plan serves as a tool to:
- maintain a current, accurate inventory of aviation facilities and aircraft operations in the Kansas City metropolitan region.
- develop forecasts of regionally based aircraft and aviation activity.
- evaluate the capacity of each airport to meet future aviation needs.
- identify and prioritize capital improvements to aviation facilities.
The plan offers capital improvement recommendations to the Federal Aviation Administration, which develops the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems — similar to a Transportation Improvement Program developed at regional and state levels for modes of ground transportation.
