Car crashes outnumber plane crashes

Dear Editor, Re: "Residents want small planes relocated," News, Nov. 9. The small plane accidents in the last few years were tragic and devastating. However, preventing small planes from using that airspace is unwarranted.

The small plane accidents in the last few years were tragic and devastating.

However, preventing small planes from using that airspace is unwarranted.

The tragic deaths of drivers happening almost daily has never resulted in closing highways or banning cars from the same highways.

One accidental death is no more tragic than the other.

If such measures as suggested by Brodie were to actually be approved this would open up all sorts of development in the area - lots of building permits and even more empty condos.
