Apologies if someone else has already posted this:

Do the fees paid by the commercial airlines completely cover the
costs of building and operating airports and the air traffic control

Not to mention the extra fire hydrants required along streets of the

We all know who *YOU* a an ignoranus!

There is no such thing as a "crash zone," nor are there any extra fire

Go back and take a long walk off a short pier!
