So therefore, there has to be an ordnance of how high a building could be built there.

Yes, but it needs to be in the direct low altitude approach to Brookley's runway.

The Marriott does not need to be concerned however.

Very true...

I don't know if any of you have ever checked out this site, but as an aviation nut, I enjoy looking at different airport diagrams, approach information, active radar, etc.

Cool information to review. Dig around within the site and there are lots of PDF files detailing approaches, collision hazards, etc. Thought I would contribute this since we were (sorta) on the subject.

Thanks for sharing. It appears our aviation-related navigational aids posted back-to-back.

It looks like www.flightaware.com and www.airnav.com provide about the same information. I will need to check the other one out!

Airnav seems to have more clutter than the other and loads slower, but it's good to have multiple info sources.

Yeah, why would folk like us who apparently aren't capable of tying our shoelaces & live in an economically depressed area need air traffic information?

Thought you lot were busy making up more pathetic lies to put in ads & closing coffee shops.

for one... I said "you lot" which is a British slang collective term that I was using to reference the populace of Seattle in general.

...but since you asked what you specifically made up I would refer to your earlier comment about an area that's experiencing a 55% economic growth rate over the next five years as "economically depressed". Maybe if you and the rest of the racist, geographically isolated denizens in the city of whiners worried more about facts and less about whining b/c your standard bearers are falling on their faces you'd get more done?

Haha, I don't see how Seattle is racist, and I don't see how your 55% growth rate doesn't reflect existing conditions being depressed in anyway. I'm not denying the growth factor, either, am I? I also don't see how we're geographically isolated (Canada is an illusion and I-5 is a road to nowhere-- also, SeaTac only has flights running to Boise) or where our "standard bearers are falling on their faces".

I think we're getting plenty done at this rate-- instead of "Rain City", we might as well be called "Crane City"! Also, we could also be called Cruise City with 800,000 passengers expected this year. That's, what, half the population of the Greater Mobile Area? I think that's a lot of people for a geographically isolated city such as Seattle.

Now, tell me how gnawing at my leg when I'm offering helpful links is constructive in any way? If you were right, wouldn't you let bygones be?

I realize you guys obviously have a beef with alexjon, but comments like these are unnecessary!

Both of us supplied links to information that was relelvant to the discussion. What did the two of you do next... thank us for contributing to the conversation? No, you started talking trash and making comments that make you look really immature.

Everybody get the NG-EADS -vs- BOEING chips off your shoulders and lets have discussions, not bickering!

I am glad you feel that way, but have you looked at his previous post in our thread? He stated that we "Alabamians" are poor people, and he has stated it more than once. I do not appreciate comments such as this when my state has proven itself time and time again. I will cease the comments directed towards him, after all, I am better than that. Please forgive any accusations that I have posted. After all, at the end of the day this is just an opinion. Last but not least, I do not have a chip on my shoulder.

Start following it at post #3234, it gets nasty! haha

Yeah, I saw his previous posts. I too am very proud of Alabama, but in this instance, both of us were just pointing out some resources people might like to review. It was you and Bogue that paid no attention to that and immediatly pounced on him.

And deny it all you want, but ALL of us have had huge chips on our shoulders concerning the Air Force tanker deal. If I had to pick sides, I would side with you and the rest of the 'bama gang, but this is not a school yard and we are not (hopefully) about to have a fist fight.
