Matt -

Call the AOPA and explain the problem. Try to get the list of contacts and power
brokers in the legislature they used to get the law passed that keeps the
airport open. A call or visit to some of the top legislators on that list may
help. Who is the AOPA rep for that airport?

Make a contribution to the AOPA PAC. It is worth everyone's consideration
because they do so much in the legislative arena for all of us.

Cheers,

John
