"...maybe turn Andrews AFB into a commercial airport if they really need it." Andrews is in Camp Springs, Md. which is only about 10 miles south east of the White House. It would be only marginally safer as a commercial airport and would cost hundreds of millions to convert to commercial use. You might as well reopen Reagan National.

The passengers on the four planes died just as surely as those in the targeted structures did.If our federal government wants me to fly again,they can reopen the airport on their doorstep and prove their new security measures are serious.
