WSJ Blames RJs for Overcrowding Airports

Wall Street Journal Reporter Scott McCartney blamed the plethora of regional jets for airport overcrowding and delays in a story published August 13. He noted half of flights at LaGuardia’s and O’Hare were regional jets or turboprops, which also accounted for 40 percent of Kennedy and Newark traffic. The article re-ignites a debate spawned by efforts to stem delays at O’Hare and LaGuardia, at which FAA imposed limitations during the last year. For a complete analysis, see the next issue of Regional Aviation News.
