I <br />project the flight activity will double ap:ain by this September. <br /> <br />Recently I have been in contact with representatives of the local General <br />Aviation District Office expressing my concerns over flight safety. Specifically, <br />I was discussing the need for an FAA control tower. I think, however, for this <br />to happen I will need more support. Therefore, I would like to see the city of <br />La Porte form an advisory committee or an airport planning committee. Some of <br />their functions could be finding ways to improve and expand airport usage. <br />establishing local flight policies and communicating our needs to the FAA. <br /> <br />Whatever is decided, I urge you to act as quickly as possible. The last <br />thing anyone wants is to draw negative attention to our program through an <br />accident. <br /> <br />Please feel free to contact me at the college at 476-1501, ext 502 or <br />home at 471-8671 if I can be of service to you. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />~<P2- <br /> <br />Larry Tucker, Chairman <br />Aeronautical Technolo~ <br /> <br />..
