Provo Airport has 100,000 flights per year? Really?? That averages to 274 flights a day (365 days), or about 23 flights per hour, one every 2.5 minutes. Wow!

But most of these are contract towers that have already been budget for and if not paid for, this year how does that save any money ?

At least the Provo airport doesn't lie directly in the flight path of Hill Air Force Base, as the Ogden airport does. The three criss-crossing runways at Ogden; i.e., 3/21; 16/34; and 7/25 are directly in line with HAFB's runway 14/32. Apparently Kimberly has never had the opportunity of flying out of the Ogden airport in a small plane and gotten caught in the wake turbulence of a C-130 departing from Hill or she might have had a bit more to say about it than a single mention in the opening paragraph. :)
