RESIDENTS HEAR DUELING PBIA EXPANSION PLANS; FAA'S NORTH RUNWAY WOULD SOON REACH LIMIT
Neither location will leave enough distance between the two runways to allow simultaneous takeoffs and landings. But a second runway would allow planes to take off and land more quickly.
Residents have until Dec. 27 to submit comments to the FAA. They can be mailed to Lindy McDowell, Federal Aviation Administration, Orlando Airports District Office, 5950 Hazeltine National Drive, Suite 400, Orlando, Fla. 32822.
Comments can also be e-mailed to pbia-eis@urscorp.com
