198? THI BRUNSWICK BIACCN
THE BRUNSWICK BEACON, Thursday, September 3, 1987—Page 9-A
filed an application with the Federal
Avaiation Administration asking for
expansion at the county airport.
Airport Commission Chairman Dr.
Richard Conrad said this expansion
includes modernization of the com
munications radio system, replace
ment of the 18-foot wind sock with a
36-foot wind sock and immediate im-
mprovements to the ramp and park
ing lot lighting.
Conrad said the state funds are
“already in hand” to complete this
work and the commission is looking
for bigger things in the near future.
Conrad said long-range plaas of the
commission include the acquisition
of land for a northeast taxiway, con
struction of a southwest taxiway, in
creased parking facilities and com
plete ramp lighting.
He also said the airport wants to
improve its lighting system for ap
proaching planes.
Currently, the airport cannot land
anything with a ceiling of less than
525 feet. Conrad said the commission
would like to invest in a modern ap
proach system which would lower the
ceiling to about 300 feet.
“With the airport located where it
is, somewhat near the ocean, we tend
to get some overcast nights and can’t
land the planes. This other system
would be especially beneficial for
this airport because of the weather,”
said Conrad.
Matthews said the original master
plan for the county airport called for
the eventual extension of the runway
to 5,000 feet, which he said is the nor
mal length for a runway accom
modating business jets.
Conrad said the runway is already
4,000 feet long and can now land all
but the largest size of business jets.
He said the extra 1,000 feet of run
way was not planned to be con
structed until the year 2000, but it
could come sooner if people in the
area certify that they are going to get
substantial jet use out of the full-
length strip.
Conrad said the airport would most
likely have to acquire more land to
allow for a clear approach for the
larger jets to the runway if the full
airstrip ever materializes.
