Simply a Great Thing for the<br />
<strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Smith</strong> Region<br />
The <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Smith</strong> region is taking off and the <strong>Fort</strong><br />
<strong>Smith</strong> <strong>Regional</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> is both figuratively – and<br />
literally – a big part of it. The primary indicators<br />
for aviation demand are the number of passengers<br />
boarding aircraft (enplanements), the number of<br />
based aircraft, and the number of takeoffs and<br />
landings (operations). With steady economic growth<br />
anticipated in the region and affirmative steps by<br />
the airport to encourage aviation use at <strong>Fort</strong> <strong>Smith</strong>,<br />
the projections are for an average annual increase in<br />
these indicators by 3.4% for enplanements, 3.3% for<br />
based aircraft and 1.5% for operations.<br />
