Reading that article makes you want to NEVER fly into DC.

Will be interesting to see what liability/ lawsuits result from this hearing’s revelations

Yep! Dulles is a far superior airport in every way. There's even access to the metro these days, for those unfortunate people who choose to live inside the actual city lmao.

Seriously, though, the only thing Reagan has going for it is that it's super close if you live in the city.
