Maybe they should have sold the naming rights to the new airport terminal, instead of giving it away for nothing to honor some obscure politician.
Rolls Royce Terminal sounds nice, and $10 million a year licensing fee sounds pretty good right now.
The old airport terminal was a complete dump that was a patchwork of "fixes" over the decades with a confusing and frustrating maze of roads leading to it.
The new airport terminal is well worth it.
It is the first and last impression anyone coming from any real distance remembers of our community.
It is an essential service that is used everyday, unlike the $750 million football stadium.
Nothing like putting on the Ritz.

The new airport was a waste of money and it was a "legacy" project for Bart Peterson. BAA, the former airport operator, did a complete study showing that if the airport spent $275 million on the old terminal, the airport would be better positioned for the future, financially. Bart Peterson and Melina Kennedy felt differently and with the help of Patrick Dooley, then airport director, they set out in spending the money to build the new terminal. No taxpayer money is used to operate the airport, but we all pay for the new and old airport facilities through higher fees.
