So Delaware is “fly over country”.....
Wilmington is about 45 minutes from PHL.
Newark and south Delaware is about the same distance from BWI.
I used to live in Delaware. Somewhere north of ninety-nine percent of the corporations chartered in Delaware have no presence there and have never been there.
It probably takes more time to get to Manhattan from JFK than to Wilmington from PHL
It’s just 20 minutes from Philly Airport to the Delaware border, and another hour and a half to the southern tip of Delaware.
Big Whoop! They obviously have no real need for an airport, and at this late date, good luck to them if they try to get the environmental permits to start one.
Ironically lots of general aviation aircraft are registered in Delaware due to tax advantages.
Some entrepreneurs there could probably make a few bucks with rickshaws and conical hats.
You have to wonder if one of the reasons the airline wasn’t profitable was because of the constant increase in taxes in this solid blue state. June 30 is the drop dead date for the General Assembly to balance the budget and the Democrat zoo will running amok to cover the 10’s of millions they have to fund [well, want to fund -they don’t believe in cost control].
I wonder if Biden will see this as “a big, f’in deal”
