Sen Kennedy learns value of local airport,... hopefully.

From AP article this morning:
Sen. Edward M. Kennedy was airlifted to a Boston hospital
Saturday after suffering a seizure at his home, and did not appear
to have had a stroke as initially suspected, his spokeswoman said.
...On Saturday, Hyannis Fire Lt. Bill Rex said a 911 call came in
from the Kennedy family compound at 8:19 a.m. A man was
transported to Cape Cod Hospital and transferred by air at
10:10 a.m. from Barnstable Municipal Airport to Boston.
...David Reilly, a spokesman for Cape Cod Hospital, said that
Kennedy was brought to the hospital around 9 a.m. and stayed
for about an hour before being flown by helicopter to the Boston
hospital.

I hope the Senator fully recovers from this event. And I hope he
becomes a fervent supporter of small municipal and community
airports nationwide, in light of how important Barnstable Airport
has proven to be for him!

Yeah, so follow up with a nice properly worded letter to that effect,
sent to the Senator.

Don't forget to mention, that municipal airports are being closed at
the rate of one a week.

As long as the subsidies are eliminated, there is nothing wrong with
local airports, provided they also comply with local regulations
concerning traffic, noise, etc.

But, 95% of many airports improvements are paid by the general
taxpaying public, with usually only a 2.5% local match and 2.5% state
match. Its the subsidies....

Yes, thank him for the fact that the immense taxpayer subsidies
exist. You know, the 95% of capital improvements borne by commercial
aviation ticket taxes and by general taxpayer dollars, with only a
2.5% local share and 2.5% (also a subsidy) state share. Then add in
the normal operating subsidies that participating local airports get.

Lets hope McCain cleans up this outrageous mess. He knows about how
disingenous Boyer is from prior dealings with the retired TV
executive, whos rantings sound more and more pathetic by the day.

Thank him for the enormous GA subsidies, courtesy of commercial
passengers and general taxpayers.
