Ooooh. Anybody remember the movie Poltergeist? I see an opportunity

Do you ever have anything nice to say about anyone or anything Honeck?

And that's on a *good* day.

Sure. Take a look at his posts about flying and anyone who likes it. For
example, check out the thread entitled "Airport Cafe."

It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.

The project was shut down a couple of hours after it was begun when
surrounding communities took their concerns to federal court. They have
managed to kill 4 previous expansion projects and are going for number 5.

It hope they win again. F**K Daley!

I thought a west entrance was part of the plan. How they will get you to
the east side I don't know.

The plan also includes 4 parallel runways with 2 perpendicular runways.
Howling crosswinds with icy runways just got more fun......

Having said that - as a Chicago area resident - I would love to see a
Western vehicle/passenger entrance to the airport, and more gates.
Nearly every delay I encounter at ORD is related to lack of gates, and
planes getting sent to the penalty box as a result.

As long as it doesn't involved the stupid shuttle thingys that Dulles
uses, I will be happy.

Talk of extending the People Mover, or shuttle buses. But first its
the lawyers turn to get rich. I expect most of the parallel runways to
be built, and maybe the southern most rr will be dropped. That one
would eat up parts of Bensenville.

Nothing schizo at all. 99.999 percent of the residents fly commercial,
and
the flight numbers grow each year. Even with no growth, the benefit
from
reduced weather delays is nation-wide.

If you want to reduce weather delays don't use O'Hare as the major hub in
the country. Whoever came up with that idea should have to spend the rest
of their life with Daley.
