These Rules and Regulations, and any amendments thereto, are designed to protect the public health, safety, interest, and general welfare at Ryan Airfield and to restrict or prevent any activity or action which would interfere with the safe, orderly, and efficient use of the Airport by its passengers, operators, tenants, and users.

It is not the intent of these Rules and Regulations to excuse any entity from performing any obligation it may have under any agreement the entity has with Tucson Airport Authority (TAA), whether the agreement is in existence on the date of the adoption of these Rules and Regulations or entered into at any time thereafter.

Any permission granted directly or indirectly, expressly or by implication, to any entity or individual to enter upon or use the Airport (including aircraft operators; vehicle operators; aircraft crewmembers and passengers; spectators and sightseers; occupants of private and commercial vehicles; officers, employees, customers, vendors, and suppliers of operators and lessees; entities doing business with TAA, its contractors, subcontractors, and licensees; and all other entities) is conditioned upon assumption of responsibility to fully and completely comply with these Rules and Regulations, Minimum Standards, and all applicable regulatory measures that may be promulgated by any governing body or agency having jurisdiction over the Airport.

TAA may remove or evict from the Airport any person who knowingly, willfully or recklessly violates any rule or regulation prescribed herein, or any rule or regulation in effect by the federal government or the State of Arizona, and may deny use of the Airport and its facilities to any such person if it is determined that such denial is in the public interest.

TAA may vary from the provisions of these Rules and Regulations from time to time when circumstances may require. Any variance shall not constitute a waiver or modification of any of the provisions herein for any purpose except as to the particular operator/user and the particular provision, which is the subject of the variance and only for so long as the circumstances warranting the variance exist. Because of the unique facts and circumstances surrounding a variance, a variance in one instance or under certain terms and conditions does not mandate a variance under similar or related circumstances, terms, or conditions if TAA's experiences or the differences in circumstances (however slight) lead TAA to decline to make a similar variation in the future.

Any activity or service that involves, makes possible, facilitates, is related to, assists in, or is required for the operation of aircraft or another aeronautical activity or which contributes to or is required for the safety of such operations.
