FAA approves Philadelphia's plan to extend one runway
The Federal Aviation Administration will allow the Philadelphia International Airport to extend one of its runways, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports. The extension will make the runway 7,000 feet long, allow it to be used by larger jets and cut delays. The project faced opposition from critics who said it would increase noise, air pollution and the possibility of a crash.
