Italian term or phrase: cono aereo di atterraggio
"Il calo delle movimentazioni di passeggeri e mezzi nell’ultimo decennio può essere giustificato anche sulla base del condizionamento del funzionamento derivante dal polo industriale, dalle servitù militari e dal vicino aeroporto, il quale pregiudica le operazioni per le grandi navi che interferiscono con il cono aereo di atterraggio".

"La realizzazione dei nuovi accosti presuppone una adeguata dotazione di pontili, banchine e piazzali, sia pure nel rispetto dei limiti definiti dal cono d’atterraggio dell’aeroporto".

(airport) approach zone
Explanation:
This is a bit of a guess, hence the low confidence.
An airport approach (and take-off) zone is sort of cone shaped (actually a trapezium) see - www.globalsecurity.org/military/library/policy/army/fm/90-2...
