- solistice 13y agoThat reminds me of Stuttgart 21, a project that blocked by Nimbys took too much money to complete, and I think was abandoned. But honestly, it's not as bad as what the Frankfurt Int. Airport has to deal with. Want a new runway to accomodate increases in flight volume? Sorry, can't build that here. You might be Germanys major Airport, but backyards are more important than you.
