Yep

Agree with Kaptaan ... follow the money. That web site reeks of somebody's investment, not a few, disparate, disgruntled home owners/renters. Buy a lot of houses, get the airport closed, reap the rewards. The airport owners would love it, the non aviation businesses already established and becoming established would love it, GA would hate it. But who gives a damn about GA? Don't underestimate how much private equity money is sloshing about out there looking for somewhere to spill.

But for mine, EN will be there for quite a few years yet.
