Abstract

This study focuses on the actual situation of the aircraft operations in the aftermath of the Great East Japan Earthquake. By using the data including each aircraft's departure and arrival time to/from the target airports, the time series behaviors of the purpose of the aircraft activities and the number of parking at the airport aprons are analyzed. In addition, how each airport deal with the large number of aircraft operations in the aftermath of the earthquake are clarified through the interview survey. The result shows that the six to ten times of the aircraft in comparison with ordinary days were operated, and the rescue works and emergency medical transport were especially increased within 72 hours, in the aftermath of the earthquake. The results of the interview survey indicated that each airport had difficulty in keeping the apron for aircraft parking space including large number of helicopters and in fueling, but some of the lessons from the past disasters helped smoother operation of the airport.
