misterno - would you mind explaining your relationship with guys at Ellington? What level of people are we talking about here? I would think that most of airport operations are related to non-civilian and NASA related management, so again, I'm curious who runs the airport?
I'm not even sure if they have ground control for private aircraft at Ellington. Is ground control for private aircraft coming from a regional control center or is Ellington handling it?
Are they actively looking to expand Ellington into public commercial operations or is it more if someone approaches them they would consider it?
What are the noise issues concerning the nearby subdivisions?
Found the answer to most of the above questions:
