The Battle of the Regional Airports

Living in close proximity to the Bob Hope Airport in Burbank, I pay reasonably close attention to news involving the airport. Here’s the latest news.

The battle of the regional airports continues…

Last I had heard, the Van Nuys Airport wasn’t very happy with Bob Hope Airport’s attempts to put in effect a night-time curfew that would shift some flights to Van Nuys. I had no idea that they too were working on their own proposal. Apparently, under their plan some of their noisiest day-time flights would shift to Bob Hope, as I just read in a LA Times article from yesterday.

It seems as though there is a not-so-funny game of cat and mouse going on between the two airports. I wonder who will win in the end. I know what I’d like to see, although it wouldn’t be very fair to one airport in particular.
