For those of you that can spare a moment of your time an airport here in Montana is threatened with closure and I'd like to ask if you would send an email to the city of Kalispell. The Kalispell City airport is under attack by some people that want it closed. Read this link and send an email to the city.

I'll definitely make my voice supporting the airport heard as well, as we've flown in there.

Sounds like the city wants to expand the airport, which is where the issue started from. It's right near town, and I can sort of see why some locals are worried about big jets flying in there.

Here's some more info:

"there is a group called Quiet Skies in Kalispell"

Bet they have all moved to Kalispell in the last 10 years and are all from either LA of San Francisco. Am not sure if this applies to this airport, but usually an airport was there first and the city grows under the flight path. Kind of like a development building next to a dairy then complaining about smell.

They have been trying to close Santa Monica for years.
