Utter nonsense! A GA airport does not negatively affect real estate
values.
I'd pay more to live near one.
BTW, have you ever seen a Rocket on floats?
Yes -- I have an original copy of the Popular Mechanics magazine that
shows an illustration on the cover (no story inside, however). I
seriously doubt that they ever tried that one, however! There wou;ld
be
too many compromises to make it work well.
I saw a photograph of one on an old air trails or something. At least I
think it was a photo. I'll see if I can find it and post it somewhere.
