I'm curious, why does the county have this attitude
towards there being a restaurant on the field? The
sense I get (no factual basis, just "sense") is that
Santa Clara County values its airports (all four!),
actually sustaining them and even making improvements. RHV
and PAO are both heavily used, as is SJC, obviously.
Q99, um, maybe not so much, but the county even put
money into that recently to build hangars.

I know there are people who want RHV closed,
like every other airport, but is there any possibility
of that happening near-term? If not, why would the
county want to keep a restaurant out of the "terminal?"
Fear of increased traffic?

Just curious...

PS -- speaking of airports under attack: I feel
for the people at KCCR who seem to have their fight
escalated once again due to the accident on 680
earlier this week. (It kills me, because the news
reports were all over it, referring also back to the
time an aircraft crashed into a nearby mall back in
1985. I'm thinking "1985? How many people have died
on that stretch of highway in cars since then?"
