Developers eyeing one of my local fields

[B A R R Y]

For those who haven't been here, HFD isn't exactly a backwoods airport,
and is location of AOPA Expo 2007. Some local folks would like to close it:

We have the same problem here in New Jersey. Landowners are opting for
quick bucks and selling to developers, who spew forth these "ghettos
for the rich."

What to do, what to do?

Maybe start by getting AOPA involved.

Burn a Star of David in the developer's front yard?

Yes, make sure the AOPA is aware of the proposal.
Nevertheless, Hartford Brainard is a very prominent facility, with lots
of activity, a demonstrable support role to Bradley, whose tower
radar services it shares as well - unless you've got some real mafia
mayor Daley types there, the threat should not be expected to get very
far.

Nevertheless, get AOPA on it right away, and make sure any
"informational" meetings are well attended. In New England, some
surprising things can get passed with a hand vote at a "Town Meeting"
style assembly, so stay vigilant. And good luck.
