Why in the world must UNC have its own little airport when RDU is more than capable of handling the traffic that would be diverted in its direction once Horace Williams is closed? RDU is already loosing traffic and business from an ailing industry. I'm sure they could use the additional income from the private air traffic. Then again, UNC gets what UNC wants - without fail.
