Please ensure you follow the directions below. Contact me if you have questions or need any assistance. This assignment is due on Sunday. Homework Assignments/Articles Review: Homework assigned articles reviews will be graded on the following criteria: It is recommended that articles come from a current event topic related to Airport Planning and Management. Examples would include Airport Security, Airfield Operations, Aircraft Accidents, ARFF, and/or Noise Compatibility. Other topics covered in the text may apply (must coordinate with the professor prior to using something outside of the topics mentioned). Please keep in mind that an article analysis is NOT a summary of the article. 1. Identify the author's thesis 2. Discuss the facts in the article that support the author's thesis. In addition discuss how the facts of the article relate to the course content. If you are including facts from the article, I should see some paraphrasing with in text citations. Use APA for in text citations. Are there resources with the article? Are they current? 3. What are the strengths and weakness of the article as is relates to the profession? Is there evidence of bias or faulty reasoning? In this section you will need to bring in outside sources to either support "truth" found in the article or "faulty reasoning". What are others saying about this topic? Is there conflicting information out there? 4. Conclusions - concluding remarks regarding your review/analysis of the article. The article review should be 2-3 pages in length (not counting the Cover Page and Reference List) and must include at least 3 References (original article and support of review).

I have chosen the topic of Airfield operations for week 2’s article review. I have chosen an article on what are common airport operations? Written by S.Han. The article was published by Everglades University in 2020. The author has discussed the type of airport operations that are generally divided into four divisions which support the thesis. The article has also described the various types of jobs that are available in the Airport operation department. The author has also described the Airport operations Entry-level roles and about the training which gives us a full idea about the airport operation management. The authors give some facts about the types of airport operations like airside operations which discuss keeping the airfields, ramps, and safety out there and prevent any kind of accident (Han, 2020). The author also states that the airside operation includes responses to airside incidents, accidents, and emergencies and policing airway driving (Han, 2020). Then there are Landside operations. People working on the landside operations have a customer-based role which is mainly keeping a check on the terminals, concourses, and roadway (Han, 2020). The terminal operation process also falls under this category. These facts give us an idea of the airfield or airport operations. Examples of the jobs available on the Airport operation job which is the airport information specialist, airport operation agent, and much more. These job examples give us in-depth details on airport or airfield management (Han, 2020
