| Definition / notes: | Airport Reference Codes The Airport Reference Code (ARC) is a coding system developed by the FAA to relate airport design criteria to the operational and physical characteristics of the airplane types that will operate at a particular airport. The ARC has two components relating to the airport design aircraft. The first component, depicted by a letter, is the aircraft approach category and relates to aircraft approach speed. The second component, depicted by a Roman numeral, is the airplane design group and relates to airplane wingspan. In the case of Design Group I, an additional designation of “small aircraft only” relates to aircraft with gross weights of 12,500 pounds or less. Generally, aircraft approach speed applies to runways and runway length related features. Airplane wingspan primarily relates to separation criteria and width-related features. |
