L+R Airport Consulting was engaged by Moorabbin Airport Corporation to provide aviation inputs to the Moorabbin Airport Master Plan 2015 and 2021.
In each case our scope included the following components:
- Airport Activity and Growth Forecasts based on the airport operators stated business growth aspirations and expected success in driving aviation activity at Moorabbin.
- Airfield Capacity and Future Needs Study to confirm appropriate long-term planning assumptions, and identify future runway and taxiway system requirements, and aircraft parking areas.
- Aviation Support Services and Facilities Study to determine requirements for ancillary infrastructure and facilities to support growth aspirations
- Airport Aircraft Operations, Flight Tracks, Noise Strategy and Management Plan, incorporating the preparation of a new Australian Noise Exposure Forecast (ANEF) together with N-above contours based on a detailed assessment of the ultimate airport capacity taking into account airspace capacity limitations.
- Identification and mapping of obstacle limitation surfaces (OLS) and PANS-OPS surfaces requiring protection from obstacle intrusion, for designation as the future Prescribed Airspace for the airport.
