Section 1277.1 - Public landing area charges

The operators of any aircraft using the public landing area at Teterboro Airport, except pursuant to the terms of a lease or other agreement with The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey or the airport operator, shall pay for such use at the rate set forth herein.

(a) For each take-off of aircraft not exceeding 2,500 pounds of maximum gross weight for take-off............ $2

Operators of aircraft of this weight class may elect to pay a fee of $20 per month per aircraft for unlimited use of the public landing area in lieu of the charge provided above.

(b) For each take-off of aircraft exceeding 2,500 pounds but not exceeding 7,500 pounds of maximum gross weight for take-off............ $3.25

Operators of aircraft of this weight class may elect to pay a fee of $30 per month per aircraft for unlimited use of the public landing area in lieu of the charge provided above.

(c) For each take-off of aircraft exceeding 7,500 pounds but not exceeding 12,500 pounds of maximum gross weight for take-off............ $3.75

(d) For each take-off of aircraft exceeding 12,500 pounds: $.30 per one thousand pounds of maximum gross weight for take-off, provided that the minimum charge for each take-off shall be............ $4

(e) Maximum gross weight for take-off shall mean the maximum gross weight which an aircraft may lawfully have, at the time of leaving the ground at any airport in the United States (under the most favorable conditions which may exist at such airport and without regard to special limiting factors arising out of the particular time, place or circumstances of the particular take-off, such as runway length, air temperature, or the like). If such maximum gross weight is not fixed by or pursuant to law, then said phrase shall mean the actual gross weight at take-off.

(f) Such charges shall not be payable in connection with the following:

(1) "Touch-and-go" and similar operations in which the aircraft comes in contact with the runways or ground and, without coming to a stop, thereafter resumes the flight by leaving the ground from the same runway and in the same direction, provided that the aircraft originates and terminates its flight at the airport and provided, further, that the initial take-off is subject to such charges.

(2) Test flights which originate and terminate at the airport, provided:

(i) The repairs and/or work under test have been performed by an airport operator permittee at the airport;

(ii) No intermediate landings take place at other airports; and

(iii) Not more than two hours elapse between the time an aircraft is duly authenticated for the test flight by the airport operator permittee performing the repairs and/or work and the time the aircraft returns to the airport.

(3) In the event an aircraft departs from the airport for another destination, which aircraft without making a stop at another airport, is forced to return to and land at the airport because of meteorological conditions, mechanical or operating causes or for any similar emergency or precautionary reason, such charge shall not be payable in connection with the subsequent departure of such aircraft or a substituted aircraft; provided, however, that on such subsequent departure the aircraft or substituted aircraft is destined for the same point and transports the same or substantially the same load.
