What is the one exception to maintaining non-movement areas to the standard of movement areas
The loading ramps and parking areas used by air carrier aircraft
Collection of aircraft classified by three parameters
Aircraft approach category AAC
Airplane design group ADG
Taxiway design group TDG
What is the Runway design code RDC
The AAC and ADG combine to determine the standards that apply to a specific runway and parallel taxiway to allow unrestricted operations. H the design aircraft under desired meteorological conditions

A - less than 91
B - 91-120
C - 121-140
D - 141-165
E - 166 or more
