27 about the requirements and application of the Airport Sponsor Assurances and other federal ob- ligations. In addition, FAA is available to com- ment on draft lease agreements. This guidance early in the process can provide needed support for the efforts of a GA airport operator or point the GA airport operator in a different direction. ⢠Get help from others. While it may feel to a GA airport operator, airport users, airport neighbors, and local elected officials that the dispute at a particular GA airport is unique, the same or similar issues have likely been debated at another GA airport in the country. Industry groups, consultants, lawyers, and other individuals are available to provide a broader per- spective on particular disputes and offer construc- tive suggestions to resolve any disputes. V. CONCLUSION This Guide was designed and intended to detail the application of the Airport Sponsor Assurances to the use of GA airports for aeronautical activi- ties. The Guide explains the nature and scope of the Airport Sponsor Assurances, summarizes prior decisions by FAA and reviewing courts con- cerning limits on access, and offers practical information on the roles of the parties and resolu- tion of disputes. The authors hope that this Guide will contrib- ute to the body of available literature and better equip interested stakeholders with valuable information to help resolve or avoid disputes over access to GA airports.
