Small Community Air Service Development Grant Proposal 

Docket DOT-OST-2011-0119 

Dear Ms. Ley, 

I am writing in support of the above referenced Small Community Air Service Development 

grant proposal, submitted by the City of Pikeville. As a resident of Pike County and the director 

of a regional professional theatre, I am aware of the need for commercial air service to this area. 

Since we hire actors out of New York it is difficult for our actors to travel to east Kentucky 

knowing that the nearest commercial airport is at least 2 hours away. 

The Pikeville-Pike County Regional Airport (PBX) sits at the center of a 13 county region of 

345,000 people in Eastern Kentucky, Western Virginia and Southwestern West Virginia and is 

more than 100 miles fi-om the nearest commercial airport. The PBX Region is surrounded by 

one of America's most important energy producing regions and is ripe for additional economic, 

industrial and business growth. The introduction of scheduled passenger airline service will 

assist in creating thousands of new jobs. 

The successfiil award of a Small Community Air Service Development grant will significantly 

assist the City of Pikeville and its partners - the Pikeville-Pike County Airport Board and the 

Southeastern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce and its consultant in successfiilly recruiting a 

regional airline which will provide service to a major coimecting hub. I am pleased to join my 

colleagues fi-om throughout the region in recommending that the Department provide the 

SCASD grant to the City of Pikeville. 

Sincerely, 

Martin Childers, Executive Director 

Jenny Wiley Theatre

XLnhancing the quality of life in eastern Kentucky by providing professional 

theatre and exceptional educational opportunities in the performing arts.
