maybe 400 pilots use it,


And maybe more. Have a source for that number?

While you're digging up facts, find out how much money is left in your
community by those using the airport. Look for taxes by corporations
basing their planes there. Look for business people flying in to do
business with local companies. Look for companies based at the airport.

Your meager tax contribution will very likely pale in comparison...
