• Transport to an from airport is not considered as those external costs are allocated to cars and train directly (p. 12, 15/16)
• Scenarios: 2000 (is-scenario), 2015 (without extension of the airport; with different scenarios for additional runways) (p. 13)
• Total external costs for the scenarios and marginal external costs (external costs that are caused by one additional take-off and landing; needed for internalisation) (p. 13)
• Limits
  • LTO-cycle (Landing/take-off cycle)
  • Height: ca. 600 m (corresponds with the mean boundary layer height)
  • Impacts of emissions are considered European-wide
  • Noise data modelled by Hessisches Landesamt für Umwelt und Geologie are used among other data (square of 70 km by 70 km) (p. 15)
