The first one with regular weekly service is projected to be available in 2002. The purpose of the Air Taxi is to get people to their destinations as quickly as possible in an aircraft with all-weather capability . Passengers will ride in a comfortable, pressurized cabin. It is expected that an Air Taxi will carry 5 to 6 passengers. They will cruise at about 28,000 feet at about 285 mph.
Recreational parks are probably the most desirable of all.
Right now there is County owned property on Bower Road, across from the airport to the south, - approximately 100 acres. It would be close to Central Washington University, not in the flood plain and would be away from the freeway and the railroad, both of which will likely grow tremendously over the next 25 years. As a Recreation County we would have unlimited opportunity for recreation related industry. Hotels and Motels and Inns and Restaurants of every kind would open. All sorts of businesses and industries related to recreational equipment could open.
