Personal Aircraft Business at Airports is part of a program of aviation research that has been under way at the Harvard Business School. This book particularly reports personal flying activities. This text is divided into three parts; the first of which discusses the aviation business, including its and its product's essential characteristics. In this part, the effects of World War I and government controls on the business are tackled. This book also explains the genesis and nature of the fixed-base operator, which is followed by a discussion on financing and management of fixed-base operations. The public ownership of airports is then examined in the latter part of the book. This book will be invaluable to those in aviation business, research, or both.
