RE: 'Bluefield' development: should we put our airports out to sea?
Most Cargo and privet jets do not use commercial gates. And for moving the cargo airliners out to sea that is a 50
% good and 50% bad idea. While the cargo airliners do have more money for this type of venture, they would again pass on the extra cost to the consumer. Bye Bye $95 Haggar slacks they just went to $195. I like the idea of the commercial airliners out to sea, you land international flights out there and then you have them all out there until security sweeps of luggage and terrorist checks can be done then move them inland and the same with outbound flights the aircraft can be swept passengers screened and luggage searched and passengers could be checked for identity and warrants before the boarding process.For small X-country flights you could use smaller more isolated airports for the task. But again the searches have to be done. So in short isolation of airports is more needed to insure our safety. Do your kiss and fly inside the city at the airport shuttle terminal and then start the searches and screening on the way to the airport.
