Raleigh Exec: The Raleigh Executive Jetport @ Sanford-Lee County〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Raleigh Exec ) 〕 or Raleigh Exec Jetport at Sanford-Lee County〔. Federal Aviation Administration.〔 〕 is a public use airport located seven nautical miles (8 mi, 13 km) northeast of the central business district of Sanford, a city in Lee County, North Carolina, United States.〔 It is owned by the Sanford-Lee County Regional Airport Authority〔 and was previously known as Sanford-Lee County Regional Airport.〔 〕 This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''reliever airport''〔 〕 for Raleigh-Durham International Airport. Raleigh Exec specializes in corporate and recreational flights into the Research Triangle Region — an area that includes Raleigh, Cary, Chapel Hill, Durham and the Research Triangle Park. It hosts several community-oriented special events each year. The largest one, "Family Day @ the jetport", is an annual aviation festival held on the first Saturday of October, featuring free plane rides for children by the EAA Young Eagles, historic and military aircraft, flyovers and other festival-type food and activities.〔(Raleigh Exec: Events @ the jetport )〕 In 2010, the free event attracted about 5,500 visitors. (Family Day was not held in 2013 because of runway construction, but is scheduled to return in 2014.)〔(Runway construction forces cancellation of this year's Family Day @ the jetport )〕 Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned TTA by the FAA〔 but has no designation from the IATA,〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Raleigh Exec Jetport at Sanford-Lee County (ICAO: KTTA, FAA: TTA, IATA: none) ) 〕 which assigned TTA to Plage Blanche Airport in Tan-Tan, Morocco.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Tan Tan Airport, Morocco (IATA: TTA, ICAO: GMAT) ) 〕 The airport's ICAO identifier is KTTA.〔 〕 == Facilities and aircraft == The airport covers an area of 700 acres (283 ha) at an elevation of 246 feet (75 m) above mean sea level. It has one asphalt paved runway, designated 3/21, which is 6,500 by 100 feet (1,981 x 30 m)〔 with a parallel taxiway and weight capacity of 100,000 pounds. The airport also has full lighting, signage and safety equipment — including an automatic weather observation system (AWOS), instrument landing system (ILS), nondirectional beacon (NDB), ground communicator outlet (GCO) and automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast system (ADS-B).〔( Raleigh Exec: About the Jetport )〕 Because the ADS-B is located on the airport grounds, pilots can monitor both ground and air traffic. For the 12-month period ending May 29, 2013, the airport had 62,780 aircraft operations, an average of 172 per day: 95% general aviation, 3% air taxi, and 2% military. At that time there were 105 aircraft based at this airport.〔( AirNav )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Raleigh Exec」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
