To Michael2012: USAirways is alive and well. It has dropped most of its Boeing 737 fleet in favor of Airbus. Airbus 319s and 320s are very effective short runway planes that do not need longer runways at Green or at Philadelphia for that matter. As demonstrated in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, USAirways will pull flights when provoked by overly ambitious airport authorities with plans to push airline operations costs through the roof. USAirways is sticking in at Green but could pull out at any time. That would be a disaster for RIAC.
Southwest has come out against higher airline prices at Green and is pulling more and more flights to Boston. Together Southwest and USAirways make up over 75 percent of the passengers at Green.
RIAC is in no position to borrow money to extend the main runway or for any other project. That's why the main runway extension project is DOA.
