The management is unlikely to change, at least in the short-term such as terminals and runways.
“However, the management is unlikely to change, at least in the shortterm such as terminals and runways (Pels et al., 2003;Oum et al., 2008).”
From Airports’ public infrastructure and sources of inefficiency (2023) · cites this paper as Oum et al., 2008
Section 5 (Sample and Variables; page unavailable) treats the number of runways and passenger-terminal area as fixed capital inputs, supporting the point that these facilities are not readily changed. It does not say that airport management is unlikely to change in the short term; the Introduction instead discusses changes in ownership and management over time. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
