I have received several responses to this posting with several good
suggestions and helpful information. I should point out that the FAA
requires us to be able to document a certain level of use/demand
before they will commit funds to such a project. That is the purpose
of my posting. We are exploring all avenues to locate such demand.
What we need is a letter from an individual/company/fractional
operator which states that that particular operator would have X
number of operations at ULM based upon an extension of the runway.
Although this number should be a legitimate possibility, the FAA does
not monitor individual operators to determine that they met the
projected use indicated by the respective operator.
I would appreciate further responses from anyone with additional
information helpful to our justification study. Thank you.
