Which of the following is NOT considered a part of the movement area?

The apron is not considered a part of the movement area because it is specifically designated for activities such as parking, loading, and unloading of aircraft, as well as other ground handling services. The movement area, on the other hand, includes zones of the airport where aircraft are permitted to taxi, take off, and land, which consists of runways, taxiways, and helipads.

Runways are where aircraft perform take-offs and landings, taxiways connect runways with other areas of the airport allowing aircraft to taxi safely, and helipads provide the necessary space for helicopters to take off and land, clearly falling under the category of movement areas. Since the apron is intended for the servicing of aircraft rather than movement, it is correctly identified as not being a part of the movement area.
