[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The flights out of national need to be substantially reduced. There is excess capacity for more flights from Dulles and BWI. There is absolutely no logical reason to have a nonstop flight out of national to freakin Wichita. [/quote]

As has been discussed extensively, the number of flights at DCA isn't the problem. The proximity of helicopter routes to DCA is the problem.[/quote]

Both can be (and are) a problem. [/quote]

The separation between landing flights is the same as what you'd find at other busy airports, including IAD and BWI. The flights aren't the problem. The helicopters are.[/quote]

There are a lot of politicians who’ve been actively pushing DCA to go beyond its flight capacity and nobody seems willing to accept the fact that there are limits to how much traffic an airport can safely accommodate. The high volume of air traffic into DCA May not be the primary cause, but it is a contributing factor in this disaster.[/quote]
