!! <br /> noise and pollution, let them pay for the privilege. Even if <br /> ..-and we believe <br /> the effort they have made so far were bona fide ,�. <br /> it is not--in the absence of county zoning to control development <br /> in these overflight lanes , you must adhere to the condition <br /> making it incumbent upon the developers to control. Please let <br /> it stand. <br /> Second, my wife and T join the Bingham populace <br /> in supporting Ed Johnson, one of our widely respected leaders, <br /> in maintaining that it should be incumbent upon the developers <br /> to provide the Orange Grove Fire Department with an access <br /> road to the airport from Teer Road. Please let this condition <br /> stand. <br /> Third, I speak very much against the idea of your <br /> lifting the ceiling on maximum allowqble training flights at the <br /> airport. Unrestricted use of the Midway facility in this fashion <br /> will essentially make it possible for the developers to pitch it <br /> to the world at large as a flight training school for central <br /> North Carolina. If that were to be the case, we should look to <br /> higher noise] and traffic count figures for what we as a community <br /> can expect. <br /> IThe range of annual operations per based aircraft <br /> in North Carolina is understood to be 130 to 1737, and an average <br /> would be clolper to 750 than the 500 figure that has been used. <br /> 750 operations times 276 (Midway's proposed) based aircraft yields <br /> 207,000 operations a year or 567 operations a day. Each operation <br /> is said to yield two and a hai f highway trips, so the total would <br /> be 1417 vehicle trips a day generated by Midway's based aircraft. <br />
