how We Help

Johnson Aviation helps clients navigate airport compatibility, FAA compliance, airspace protection, real estate development, and aviation planning challenges with practical, experience-driven solutions.

Johnson Aviation helps airports, public agencies, landowners, and developers maximize the value of land on and near airports while ensuring compatibility with aviation operations, zoning requirements, and land use regulations.

Development near airports requires careful evaluation of safety, noise, overflight impacts, airspace protection, and regulatory requirements. We help clients navigate airport compatibility challenges while preserving project feasibility and development value.

From ground lease negotiations to airport operations agreements, Johnson Aviation helps airports, tenants, and developers structure successful real estate opportunities that comply with FAA, TSA, and airport operational requirements.

Protecting project height often protects project value. We manage FAA airspace reviews, Form 7460 filings, obstruction evaluations, and regulatory coordination to help clients maximize development potential while maintaining compliance.

Johnson Aviation helps airports, consultants, and developers navigate FAA planning, operational, environmental, and safety requirements through practical regulatory compliance support and technical review services.

Emerging aviation technologies require thoughtful planning. We support heliport, vertiport, and Advanced Air Mobility projects through site selection, facilities planning, environmental review, infrastructure planning, and permitting coordination.

Johnson Aviation provides technical aviation planning expertise for legal teams, airport operators, public agencies, developers, and private clients involved in planning, environmental, operational, and development-related disputes.

Our solar glare studies evaluate potential impacts to airports, air traffic control towers, roadways, and surrounding land uses while helping solar projects comply with FAA guidance and local requirements.
