Okla. airport rarely visited by planes to close despite federal funding

3. Fine.

As a pilot, it is important to me to keep open airports.

However, as a progressive, it is more important to e to see that red state (And Senator Coburn, in particular) understand the value of airports.

Since they won't, I look forward to them repaying the last 25 years worth of airport improvement funds they took. Those of us who fly paid most of that through gas taxes, and airline ticke4t taxes. So,,,if they close the airport, the state must repay all that money.

Pony up Oklahoma. No relief for you.
