That's the usual thing. Build near an airport because the land is
cheap because of the airplanes, then complain about the airplanes and
force the airport to move.

Admittedly, I don't know about the specifics of Intel/Portland, so maybe
it's not the usual thing...

Well, that's pretty much the way it is. Intel -sponsored- the same airshow
the same years they were building the factory under the pattern.

Minor note: although the airport is Portland-Hillsboro, Portlanders
generally avoid Beaverton. Soccer moms, cellphones and SUVs. Occasionally
they get hit by the light-rail train and sue the transit company because
they didn't have sufficient warning that the train was coming (like, for
example, looking both ways before crossing tracks.)
