Magazine Poll Supports N.J. Airports

An online poll in New Jersey Monthly magazine has apparently launched the pilots’ jungle telegraph into action. The question posed on the magazine’s Web site reads, “Despite increased air and noise pollution, should small airports such as Teterboro make efforts to renovate and expand if it will bring more money to the local economy?” At press time, 7,753 people had answered, with “yes” votes carrying a 98-percent majority. An editorial assistant at the magazine told AIN, “We’re pretty surprised. We’ve been getting responses from all over the country.”
