Original sentence: The lack of any base closure will no doubt lead to the eventual slot allocation of flights (15-20 years) given it's limited potential of 62 gates and a single 9,401' runway which also negatively impacts the option of international flights (aircraft suffer signifcant payload penalties which make profitable operations impossible as demnstrated most recently by BA's flight to London), the airport is hampered further by stringent Noise Requirements (Departures are not permitted between 11:30pm and 6:30am daily), inadaquite instrument landing capability for Runway 27 (the primary runway) and terrain issues to both Runway 9 and 27 which prevents full airfield minimums to CAT I ILS 250 and 1/2 standards (CAT II/III is impossible without further dispalcing the runway thresholds and improving navigational aids)
Edited sentence: It's unfortunate the local politicians (at the City, State and Federal Levels) have such a lack of foresight with regard to SAN's future and the community it serves.Perhaps while the politicians, such as Randy "Duke" Cunningham (R) and Duncan Hunter (R) fill their pockets with campaign contributions from defense contractors they helped in the BRAC process, they can come up with an explaination to passengers why their air fares will increase at a higher than national average rate at SAN from this point on (as a result of dimishing airport capacity), why getting to the airport requires passage through level "F" roadway traffic levels, and why in 10-15 years the average delay of flights in and out of San Diego triple.The lack of any base closure will no doubt lead to the eventual slot allocation of flights (15-20 years) given it's limited potential of 62 gates and a single 9,401' runway which also negatively impacts the option of international flights (aircraft suffer signifcant payload penalties which make profitable operations impossible as demnstrated most recently by BA's flight to London), the airport is hampered further by stringent Noise Requirements (Departures are not permitted between 11:30pm and 6:30am daily), inadaquite instrument landing capability for Runway 27 (the primary runway) and horrid terrain issues to both Runway 9 and 27 which prevents full airfield minimums to CAT I ILS 250 and 1/2 standards (CAT II/III is impossible without further dispalcing the runway thresholds and improving navigational aids)
