  1. True--but the occasional 757 or 737 charter would be well attended!
  2. The standards aren't as tough as you might think. Past standards called for the RSA to extend only 60m (200 feet) from the ends of the runway. Currently the international standard ICAO requires a 90m (300 feet) RESA starting from the end of the runway strip (which itself is 60m from the end of the runway), and recommends but not requires a 240m RESA beyond that. In the U.S., the recommended RSA may extend to 500 feet (150 m) in width, and 1,000 feet (300 m) beyond each runway end (according to U.S. Federal Aviation Administration recommendations; 1000 feet is equivalent to the international ICAO-RESA of 240m plus 60m strip). The standard dimensions have increased over time to accommodate larger and faster aircraft, and to improve safety. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runway_safety_area
  3. I would actually support a greenway bike/ped path around the outside perimeter of the airport, complete with benches for fishing. The public could access it near the Lean Dog barge, and make their way around 1.75 miles back to a link up at Marginal rd next to Lakeside Yacht club/Aviation High. It would also make this a one-of-a-kind urban experience, with comparisons to the great waterfront scene at Princess Juliana airport on St Maarten, where crowds gather at the end of the runway to get blasted by jet exhaust! The question is whether or not the feds would allow this while maintaining the runway safety area. This could be accomplished by adding either land, or making an over-water pedestrian/bikeway on the departure end of runway 24R.
  4. With Porter Air on final to YTZ :)
  5. thAt dERn SOCULIST KeNnedy is cOSTING us MUNEY!
  6. They might as well throw on Erie and Buffalo as well!
  7. The Air National Guard base always makes for a good tenant as well.
  8. It just doesn't seem like a location that makes sense for a Town Hall. I'm still suspect of this rumour.

    It is noble, however if he's elected, he needs to figure out what happens when you actually try to call one of those numbers and get service.

    I think we'll see things come out about the Jackson administration as time goes on. They may not have engaged as much overt graft as Dimora and White, but there is a TON of nepotism and bloat going on in the ranks of city employees and contractors.
  11. Sending my regrets. I am traveling for work. Enjoy!
  12. I don't have time to watch the entire thing. Was the waterfront line running? Or did they have to use the "temporary" stop all the way over on Erieside?
  13. Thank you Rich--it is working again now.
  14. Hi all--I was on this morning no problem but checked in at lunchtime and while the forum is working, the "activity" buttons are not. When I try recent activity etc I get an HTTP 500 error? I am using a Macbook pro with Chrome, from a hotel room network.
  15. I think those were my friends that just moved out of the 2 bedroom on 8! :)
  16. Burke is a Class D. But I fly real planes not drones, so not sure maybe there is some other terminology for drone pilots? It would seem to add confusion so not sure why the FAA would do that? At any rate--cool pics!
  17. I don't think it helps that they are particularly bad examples of 80's cul-de-sac architecture. The fact that they are sitting by themselves for the most part, rather than a street full of them, makes them stand out as aging rather poorly.
  18. Class A is above 18,000 feet MSL. These weren't in Class A.
  19. We can only dream!
  20. Not sure what a ground stop at Hopkins would have to do with the "cell phone lot overlfowing," or how there "won't be enough room for new passengers." I'm sure CLE wasn't in any danger.

    It is so nice to see opposing teams shaking hands and embracing the moment. We can only hope that all of America can do this again someday. Extremely moving.
  22. Whatever the height, it would help fill out E 9th st, which I count as a win.
  23. Yep. It's time for me to move to Europe....

    I also saw Nina Turner signs pretty much everywhere and that didn't turn out the way it appeared. I think Bibb has a chance he just needs to keep up the engagement with voters (he, or a campaign staffer answering in his name, has responded to my emails directly every time I've contacted him).

    I would up this number to 70%.
