The only time I've seen a problem with trying to find parking there was during Hurricane Rita.

If someone told me, 'Hey Jag, you want to buy an airport for $3 million?' I would jump all over it. There's several ways the city could pay for it - through (federal aviation) bonds or owner financing. It could be a cash-less option. If someone offered me that, I'd take it.

We can accommodate all of the corporate jets out there. The market for an airport like this is the commercial passenger planes, commercial freight and also general aviation - usually piston-engine aircraft and jet traffic. We also have several military contracts with (United States) Customs, (the Department of) Homeland Security and all branches of the armed services.

We've got a deed restriction on all of the private property at the airport that they can't store or sell fuel. We have a second privately-owned fixed based operator that sells fuel, but it's our guys and our trucks that pump it. They only make a commission on the fuel they sell.

Some of that business is going elsewhere where they can get that service.

There wasn't a trail that led to an assumption of (Nevin) trying to influence anything.
