View Comment

The creation of class D would be a huge hindrance on general aviation. That corridor is the primary VFR corridor for GA traffic transiting the area on the east side from the N to the S. There simply is no alternate. I use that corridor on a weekly basis and have never had an issue. The military already has most of the airspace from downtown to birchwood tied up. Surely it has already has the airspace to taylor operations from Bryant. In fact, that is what is already being done and it has worked for decades.
