An airport is far more than a runway and terminal: it is a regulated public utility, a business enterprise, a transportation network, and a permanent negotiation among communities, airlines, tenants, regulators, and taxpayers. This episode follows that system from its historical foundations through flight operations, governance, land use, finance, cybersecurity, leasing, and capital development, with practical guidance for turning technical rules into defensible management decisions.
