Yada, yada,yada. My local airport has an ANG base that flys refueling tankers and C-17 cargo jets. They have their own buildings, their own a corner of the airport with hangers and ramps. But when they are taking off and landing, they use the same runways as the commercial jets.

You want to change that… why?

Because military and civilians fall under different laws.

Because civilians don't deserve to be viable military targets just so politicians and goverment bureaucrats can claim to save a buck and send the money elsewhere.

Yada, yada,yada.

Belittle it all you want but everyone dealing with the C-130 that's now grounded in a civilian airport in a foreign country aren't saying, "yada, yada, yada".
