Aero-News: Quote of the Day
"We support reopening Reagan National
Airport to general aviation but most of our members are just trying
to get closer to Reagan National so they can use one of the GA
airports in the capital area!"
Source: AOPA President Phil Boyer testifying
before Congress Tuesday afternoon on the issue of reopening the
Ronald Reagan International to general aviation aircraft. At the
hearing on permitting GA flights into the airport (held in the
Signature Flight Support hangar), Boyer said that it is also time
to rescind the Baltimore-Washington air defense identification zone
(ADIZ) and once again permit GA pilots to access the national
capital area.
