Development Challenges of Secondary and Small Airports in California, Research Report 11-21

Study Methods This report is based on literature reviews and interviews with airport officials at airports in California. The airports were selected to provide diverse geographic coverage of the state and a broad mix of secondary and smaller airports. Airports contacted in northern California were Oakland International, San Jose International, Monterey Regional, and Concord Regional. In southern California Long Beach, Bob Hope, and McClellan-Palomar airports were contacted. Officials at five of the airports – San Jose International, Concord Regional, Long Beach, Bob Hope, and McClellan-Palomar agreed to be interviewed for the study. In addition to interviewing the airport officials, the researchers also interviewed the aviation regional planners at the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG), the metropolitan planning agencies in each region.
