ABSTRACT

This paper mainly studies the relationship between airport intrinsic factors and aircraft landing cost. It turns out that the cost of the descent is related to some environmental factors because the landing process is different from the cruise process. In the process of cruising, all the behaviors of the aircraft are related to the behaviors and weather of the pilots. In addition to the participation of the aircraft, the landing process also has a great deal to do with the airport where the aircraft lands. So the environmental factors of the airport also have a lot to do with the fuel consumption during landing. Considering the impact of airport factors on aircraft landing, through modeling and analysis of the airport, this paper discusses the impact of the airport environment and management factors on aircraft landing fuel consumption. Taking 13 major airports in China as the analysis target, this paper analyzes the characteristics of these 13 airports and points out the focus of management investment in different airports and the corresponding reasons.
