Abstract
The objective of the (U.S.) Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program (AIP) is “to help in developing a nationwide system of public-use airports that meets the current needs and the projected growth of civil aviation” (FAA 2002). Despite its importance to airports, academic study of the program – its effect, benefits, and deficiencies - has been limited. This paper explores funding decisions in light of AIP grantee characteristics using a regression analysis. It is suggested that the decision-making apparatus supporting the AIP program does not clearly take into consideration
current needs, or the projected growth of civil aviation.
