    As an employee of the government I’ve found the statement in the last panel disturbingly true.

    Another variant on Catch-22.

    I was an assistant manager at a county airport with a 2800’ runway next door to a few factories, that were landing their planes at a airport 100 miles away then driving people and product back and forth because our runway was too short. So a 5000’ runway was proposed, but the FAA said we didn’t qualify for one because planes that needed a 5000’ runway were not landing at our airport.

    So they put a 4000’ one in, and then 2 years later, when the jet traffic started coming in they came back and extended it to 5000’. Of course they had to redo all the lighting, markings, taxiways, and a bunch of other stuff, that in the end probably cost a whole lot more than what it would have to put in the 5000’ one in the first place.

    About 45 years ago when I tried this stuff, it usually ended up with me in detention.

    That’s why you have to buy summer clothes in February, and winter clothes in July.
