Default Hillsboro Air Show

In article .com,
(=?iso-8859-1?q?Spread_Eagle_=AE?=) says...
Nothing gets developed anywhere without city, county, or state
approval, any of them or all of them, depending upon the project. This
didn't happen in a vacuum. The city and or county issued building
permits for all of that housing. Government was complicit. And it
had to be. That is prime residential real estate. It's the airport
that's out of place.

Besides, to any thinking person with half a brain it was fully
foreseeable that real estate in that area would become urbanized.
That's one reason why thinking people with a full brain have serious
problems with city and county urban planners. They don't know what
they are doing.


Airplanes fly over populated areas all the time, and occasionally one
crashes. Accidents happen. The best way of dealing with the problem is
to improve air safety, not move the airport to some remote area where
nobody will use it. The Hillsboro Airport gets a lot of traffic
precisely because it is so convenient.

If people want to live next to an airport, it's their business, not
yours. Caveat emptor. It's not like the existence of the airport is a
secret.
