<br /> 55% of total apron space used for aircraft parking. Remaining 45% used for aircraft circulation.

<br /> Planning Activity Level area requirements are based on usable parking apron and do not include additional circulation requirements.
<br />Future circulation area will be the result of layout configurations but can be assumed at approximately 40-45% of additional apron.
<br />
<br />
<br />Apron requirements were estimated based on the number of operations that occur on the average day of
<br />the peak month at EUG. It was found that all the general aviation aprons are sufficient in size though the
<br />planning period. Below is further discussion of the findings for each general aviation apron area.
<br />
<br />Lane Aviation Apron – The Lane Aviation apron area is used specifically for the school’s flight training
<br />aircraft. The existing 4,000 square yards of usable pavement is sufficient to accommodate the flight
<br />school’s aircraft fleet. However, the location of the apron is not ideal as it is central to a confluence of
<br />commercial operations using Runway 16R-34L and is not in close proximity to the secondary runway
<br />which is used for flight training. Ideally, this apron and its associated facilities would be located adjacent
<br />to the parallel Runway 16L-34R, which is designed to accommodate flight training activities. Long-term
<br />planning should consider a land area reservation for Lane Aviation in the EGAR or Hollis Area. For the
<br />planning period, the quantity of Lane Aviation apron is sufficient.
