Neighbors Welcome the Yeager Airport Fix

Work is underway on a project to remove part of a manmade hillside at Yeager Airport that collapsed earlier this year. Neighbors agree that construction is a welcome relief, according to WCHS TV, after the landslide in March. Workers are making an effort now to shore up the hillside on a portion of the emergency over-run area at the end of the airport’s runway. Airport officials are suing companies involved with the over-run area’s design and construction, and that’s pending while construction begins to fix the issues.
