(a) A person may not, on or from an airport, navigate, land, fly, service, maintain, or repair an aircraft or conduct any aircraft operation, except in conformity with applicable FAA regulations, this chapter, and other applicable law.
(b) Except in an emergency, when safety dictates, or upon prior approval of the airport manager, aircraft operation on or from an airport is confined to designated runways, water lanes, helipads, taxiways, taxi lanes, aprons, and aircraft parking areas. When the airport manager determines that it is necessary for safe and secure operation of the airport, the airport manager may by control device or order regulate, control, and direct the availability of a runway, water lane, helipad, taxiway, taxi lane, apron, and aircraft parking area on an airport. The airport manager shall limit the use, time, type, weight, dimensions, and number of aircraft allowed to use an aircraft parking area when the manager determines that the limitation is justified by the design, safety, maintenance, or operation of the parking area or the airport. The airport manager may segregate aircraft operations on an airport according to aircraft use, size, type, or weight. The manager shall give notice of the manager's orders, limitations, and aircraft operation segregation decisions under this subsection by
(1) posting in the affected areas of the airport; or
(2) issuing a Notice to Airmen under FAA Order 7930.2G as described in FAA Advisory Circular No. 150/5200-28B.
(c) A person who operates an aircraft at an airport shall conduct aircraft operations in conformity with applicable state and federal law, including applicable provisions relating to aircraft noise, and, to the extent possible consistent with safety considerations, in conformity with orders that the department or the airport manager issues under AS 02.15.020 (a) or under any other state or federal law, including orders regarding noise compatibility or preferential runway use.
(d) A person who brings an aircraft onto or keeps an aircraft on an airport does so at the person's own risk with respect to security, maintenance, and operation of the aircraft. The department is responsible for the security, maintenance, or operation of an aircraft on an airport only if the department owns or leases the aircraft.
(e) The operator of an aircraft shall operate the aircraft so as to minimize engine, propeller, or rotor wash on an aircraft, person, or property.
(f) A person may not taxi an aircraft onto an airport from property, including water, outside the airport boundary, except as specifically provided for under an airport boundary crossing permit issued under 17 AAC 45.285.
(g) A person may park an aircraft on an airport only in an area that the airport manager has designated for aircraft parking or in an area authorized for that purpose under a lease, permit, or concession.
(h) A person may not land or otherwise operate an aircraft equipped with more than 30 passenger seats on an airport operated by the department under 14 C.F.R. Part 139 unless the person
(1) first applies for and receives written authorization from the airport manager to land or operate the aircraft at the airport; or
(2) is using the airport in compliance with applicable federal law as an alternate landing site or for an emergency landing.
