Are runways designated with letters then numbers and taxiways are designated with letters?
No.
Runways are designated with numbers that are based on the magnetic heading of the runway. Runway 36 is on a magnetic bearing of 360 or magnetic north. Runway 18 is on a magnetic bearing of 180 or magnetic south. A runway may carry a letter such as 19L and 19R where there are two parallel runways, a Left and a Right with the same heading.
Taxiways are normally designated by a single letter, but if an airport has more than 26 taxiways, they can be designated by two letters or a letter followed by a number.

Multiple parallel runways would be designated as A1l A2c A3r?
Multiple parallel runways are typically designated using a combination of letters and numbers to differentiate between them. In your example, "A1," "A2," and "A3" indicate three parallel runways on the same alignment, while the letters "l," "c," and "r" signify their respective positions: left, center, and right. This system helps pilots and air traffic controllers clearly identify and communicate about the specific runways in use.
What is identified by numbers on an airfield that represent orientation by compass degrees?
Runways
What are identified by numbers that represent orientation in compass degrees rounded to the nearest 10 degrees?
runways
Identified by numbers that represent the orientation in a compass degrees rounded to the nearest ten degrees?
Runways

Is it true that runways are designated with letters and taxiways are designated with numbers?
Technically yes however Runways have at all times numbers and when more than one runway in the same direction its will have R(right ) L (left) C (centre) i..e R21R is Runway (heading 210 degrees) Right Taxiways have letter and numbers allocated i.e Taxi via Bravo, Bravo 3, Charlie , Delta and Delta 9 for stand 127

Am-2 can be used for parking aprons and what other areas?
active runways taxiways
Do the F-35 need runways and taxiways in order to take off or land?
No, the F-35 does not need to have taxiways or runways to take off or land but it can use those to to move if the F-35 wanted to but the F-35 can take off vertically without runways.
Which letters are used to distinguish parallel runways in airport?
The letter are "L" "R" and "C" They represent Left, Right and Center runways. There are also numbers along this letters which represent the magnet pole changes. ___RAJEEV NAMBYAR
What do you call where the plane drives to?
The area where a plane drives to is called the "taxiway." Taxiways are paved paths on an airport that connect runways with terminals, hangars, and other facilities. Pilots use taxiways to maneuver the aircraft safely while on the ground before takeoff and after landing.
How much space should remain open between the near edges of parallel runways and taxiways to provide dumping space for snow removal?
150 feet
How are Taxiways designed?
Taxiways are designed to facilitate the safe and efficient movement of aircraft on the ground. Key considerations include their width, which must accommodate the largest aircraft expected to use the airport, as well as their layout to minimize conflicts with runways and other taxiways. Design also incorporates proper signage, lighting, and markings to guide pilots, along with appropriate drainage systems to prevent water accumulation. Additionally, safety areas adjacent to taxiways are included to enhance emergency access and aircraft maneuverability.
Which is correct in regards to destination sign on the airfield?
Destination signs on the airfield are used to guide pilots and ground vehicles to specific locations, such as runways, taxiways, and terminals. They typically feature a combination of letters, numbers, and arrows that indicate the direction and distance to the intended destination. It's important for these signs to be clearly visible and properly illuminated to ensure safety and efficiency in ground operations. Familiarity with these signs is essential for all personnel operating in the airfield environment.
What is identified by numbers on an airfield that represent orientation by compass degrees?
Runways
What is the senior airport authority?
Senior Airport Authority or Senior Airfield Authority "should be designated early in the planning process by the joint force commander (JFC). The SAA is responsible for the control, operation, and maintenance of an airfield to include the runways, associated taxiways, parking ramps, land, and facilities whose proximity directly affects airfield operations." Reference AFTTP (I) 3-2.68 Ch. 1-5
What is a fod picker and who sells it?
FOD (foreign objects and debris) is continually swept off of active runways for transient aircraft. All vehicles entering taxiways and runways must be swept for FOD before entrance. A FOD picker is a handy little tool which allows the user to remove FOD from vehicular tire tread. NO, I don't know where to buy one.
