In this programming activity, you will complete the definition of the Airport class. Then you will run a prewritten client program that instantiates several Airport objects, calls the methods that you have written, and displays the values of the objects' data.

Copy into a folder on your computer all the files from this chapter's Programming Activity 2 folder in the supplied code files. Note that all files should be in the same folder.

Load the Airport.java source file; you'll notice that the class already contains the class definition from Programming Activity 1. Your job is to complete the class definition by adding a static class variable (and its supporting code) and writing the toString and equals methods. It is important to define the static class variable and the methods exactly as described in the comments, because the AirportDrawing class will call each method to test its implementation. Searching for five asterisks in a row (*****) will position you at the six places in the class definition where you will add your code. The Airport.java code is shown here in

When you finish modifying the Airport class, compile the source file. When Airport.java compiles without any errors, load and compile the AirportPractice2Application.java file. This source file contains main, so you will execute the application from this file
