Where did I read that rarely if ever is an airport closed that has a viable FBO.

I don't know where you read that, but it hardly seems true. I've seen a number
of airports with viable FBO's and other thriving businesses closed. CGX is perhaps
the most recent. Even viable FBO's can't compete with other uses for the amount
of acreage that the average small airport requires.
