[amp_mcq option1=”Aircraft rear loading door is far away from terminal building” option2=”Hot blast is directed towards the terminal building” option3=”Overall apron area required is more” option4=”All the above” correct=”option4″]
The correct answer is D. All the above.
In angle nose out parking configuration, the aircraft is parked at an angle to the terminal building. This has several disadvantages:
- The aircraft rear loading door is far away from the terminal building, which makes it difficult for passengers and cargo to be loaded and unloaded.
- Hot blast is directed towards the terminal building, which can be a safety hazard and can also damage the terminal building.
- Overall apron area required is more, as the aircraft needs to be parked at an angle to the terminal building.
Therefore, angle nose out parking configuration is not a very efficient way to park aircraft.
