Abstract: The Norwegian Civil Aviation Administration (NCAA) is responsible for investments and operations regarding the Norwegian airport system, and the air traffic management systems. This paper presents methods for economic appraisal in the aviation sector, proposed for use within the NCAA's jurisdiction. Methodological problems will be addressed, such as the handling of project risk and uncertainty, projects with mutual dependency, and projects influencing accident risks. The cost–benefit analysis methodology proposed here may give conflicting recommendations compared with financial analyses. This raises decision-making problems for public agencies like the NCAA.
