DCA to reopen to GA

I don't see how it's such "Great News". With a requirement to have a
law enforcement officer on board, it does nothing for those of us with
small planes.

It's a step in the right direction, plain and simple.

Nothing more, nothing less.

No, I disagree. It is as someone else mentioned, just enough of a step
to shut up the people who actually matter to the gov't. The rest of us,
unfortunately, only get heard through AOPA, and they obviously don't
have enough clout to get us our rightful access to the DC-3 airports...
honestly, I could care less about flying into DCA... the other airports
that have been shutdown are far more GA friendly. At least there is a
way to get in to them, but it requires jumping through way too many
hoops for the occasional transient pilot.

Anybody can get access to the DC-3 airports. You just have to go
through the vetting process. That was opened up a few months ago.
Of course, the process is annoying to get vetted and mildly annoying
(on a busy day when both the Leesburg FSS and Potomac approach have
long call queues0.
