In terms of air traffic control, what does the movement area include?

The movement area is defined as the sections of an airport used for the takeoff, landing, and taxiing of aircraft. This includes all runways, taxiways, and any other area where aircraft can move under the direction of air traffic control. By including all areas under the authority of air traffic control, it ensures organized and safe operations for aircraft as they navigate the airport environment, which encompasses more than just the runway and taxiways.

The other options are more limited in scope. The runway area alone does not encompass the entire movement area; it is just one crucial component. Areas designated for parking aircraft fall into the non-movement area, and those specifically reserved for airport employees also do not reflect the full extent of the movement area, which is primarily focused on the operational parts of the airport used by aircraft under air traffic control management.
