But Zooker, that's the point. The orbitals are carried on regular aeroplane launchers......would be like any RYR routing out over MAC, climb up, and let go of vehicle
Exactly - it will have zero impact on airport or air traffic operations. The launch vehicle is just a normal aircraft. After departure they will head out to a restricted part of airspace somewhere off the coast, launch the rocket, and return for a normal landing.

Why does everyone seem to think there will be Saturn V's launching vertically from PIK?
