On 27 April 2006 Airneth-fellow Dr. Richard de Neufville held a Masterclass. Richard de Neufville is a Professor of Engineering Systems and Civil and Environmental Engineering at MIT, Boston.

In his lecture, he addressed the concept of multi-airport systems in metropolitan areas as well as the problems, dynamics and risks associated with it. In addition, he discussed the planning of airports and multi-airport systems in a highly dynamic market environment. Richard de Neufville applied his insights to the Dutch airport system.

There was an opportunity for discussion and questions which will soon be published in this section.
