IN PERSON: This course will cover both the development of aircraft, before and from the time of the Wright brothers, and the evolution of airports from their earliest stages. We will cover the operating functions of airports that the public does not often see or hear about, such as wildlife management, winter snow and ice removal, safety inspections and maintenance, and emergency management. The course will be a combination of lectures with DVDs and slides, and presentations by current outside experts on some of these functions. A request will be made to the management of our Raleigh-Durham airport for a tour during the term. | Lecture + Q&A.
Max enrollment: 30.
