No Need for a Whiteman Airport Tower
In a Dec. 23 article about installing a control tower at Whiteman Airport, County Supervisor Mike Antonovich was quoted as saying the control tower would be “a major step toward improving air safety in the San Fernando Valley.” No one has shown that the air traffic at Whiteman is a threat to the Burbank airline traffic or Van Nuys traffic. Installing a control tower at Whiteman is an act of excess federal spending, not increased air safety.
