Aero-News Quote of the Day

"The unfortunate collapse of the Millville AFSS roof has required Lockheed Martin to adjust our planning in regards to your employment situation."

Source: From a letter sent to employees of the Millville, NJ, Airport Flight Service Station, advising them of Lockheed Martin's decision to close the FSS after an air conditioning unit fell through the facility's roof last month. Employees had expected to stay on for as much as eighteen months following Lockheed Martin's October 4 takeover of the operation from the FAA -- but that was before the roof fell in.
