I would actually love it if Paine Field was turned into a major airport (for my preferred airlines). It'd save me at least 1 1/2 hours driving.

I like PAE as well, there was some push from some group near Auburn to create a second Regional airport on the East side, but I guess I don't get it. I think PAE is the easiest to get to for anybody equal to or North of 520 from both sides of the lake. Plus it would nicely serve Everett etc...

And, the tracks run right from Downtown to PAE (up the side of Boeing) un-interrupted which if thought was put into it, would make a Nice PAE-EXpress (ala, Heathrow Express) thing. Of course, I guess I wouldn't mind one of our umpteen transportaiton systems that we are apparently building to actually get TO the airport (SEATAC) instead of 1/2 mile or 1 mile short of it.

Ok, I should stop dreaming now...
