FAA Opens ATC Tower At Cessna Plant
Too bad they won't close down the ADIZ to do this....
FAA Opens ATC Tower At Cessna Plant:
So, how busy is your aircraft plant that it needs its own tower? The FAA started daily 7 a.m.-to-7 p.m. staffing of an air traffic control tower at Independence, Kan. last week and Cessnas piston single and Mustang entry level jet traffic is the main reason. "This is another milestone in the expansion of the Independence facility" Rod Holter, manager of Cessnas Independence plant said in a news release "With the increase in traffic following the successful launch of Mustang production here, installing a tower was the right thing to do for the convenience and safety of our customers and our employees who fly"
