Another Abeport?
Cross posted from The Eleventh Hour
I found out only recently that the proposed third Chicago area airport might be called the Abraham Lincoln National Airport. But wait. Illinois already has an Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport. (Out-of-towners: it’s here in Springfield). How many Abe airports do we need?
Look, Chicago area, Abe’s our guy. Springfield’s guy. Abe and State government are all we have. You guys have everything else. And even though I think Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport is a stupid name for our airport (previously known only as Capital Airport), we did think of the Abe link first. I think we need to ask ourselves, if alive today, FWWAF – From Where Would Abe Fly?

Peotone is dead anyway. Rockford is the THIRD Chicago airport!
They could call it the Happiness Sunshine Cute Kitty Airport, but that still won't change the fact that Peotone is an awful, awful, awful idea and a complete waste of money.
I agree with Anon 9:09. Level Rockford and make it an airport.
Kidding, I used to live there and kinda liked it. Sort of.
