A leveled runway base of 10,000 feet in length (8,000 feet paved with 1,000 foot over-runs) is required at Kanawha County Airport for adequate accommodation of jet transport aircraft currently in use by scheduled airlines and business operators. A requirement for reorientation of the present runway from 05-23 to 06-24 would appear indicated because of terrain obstructions in the approach zones. Operating restrictions as currently imposed at Kanawha Airport are of serious consequence to air commerce. Air passenger growth at Kanawha County Airport has lagged behind national air transport growth and behind economic indices of the West Virginia area. Modern air transport facilities are considered to be of substantial importance in the conduct of U.S. business, and is one factor considered in the selection of new industrial locations. (Author)
