Build an airport???? Not Likely.
This is only a feasibility study for an airport. Somebody has a dream of air freighting produce direct from Constanza to U.S., P.R., and Caribbean.
This is more of an agenda by someone to pocket government funds to do the study, rather than build an airport. This concept will go the same way as the railroad from Sto.Dgo to Santiago.
Regards,
PJT

Where in Contanza do they think they'll put the thing? On top of one of the mountains? If the airstrip I saw is the one they thinking of using, it's right beside the main street heading into the town, about 15-20m wide by I don't know how long but if they build an INTERNATIONAL airport on that spot... bueno... I can just imagine the headlines everytime a plane runs over a car or a worker...

Not just that, but in December, January, and February (more so in Jan than any other months) the Constanza Valley experiences periodic freezes, with water actually freezing.
Imagine all the planes slipping around with all that black ice!

The runway would go where the old one is. Apparently in the past produce was shipped out by air. A national competitiveness commission was in Constanza yesterday to look into this.

It's those damned Dutch-Dominicans again!
It might actually make sense, especially in the market for tropical "quick-perishables" or flowers.

Excellent!!!
And by the way can I get Mr Vanderhort's phone number, cuz my family lives in Guachupita and they need an airport to move out of the country in their Bizz Jet, during those damn "Huelgas"...
They just opened an Int'l Airport in Santiago. It was suppose to help in the exportation of products from Cibao's Valley to the U.S. Then what's the point??? If they already have what they needed. Also, can't the perishable flowers resist the trip from Constanza to Santiago by road???
It doesn't surprise me...
I've seen worse things:
1) Aeropuerto María Montez - Flights per Day ¿?
2) Aeropuerto La Isabela - Open?
3) Aeropuerto de Samaná - Is it real?

THE AIRPORT IN CONSTANAZA WILL DO NO GOOD EXCEPT FOR WASTE MONEY. THEY JUST OPENED STI AND STI IS DOING MUCH MORE BETTER THAN EXPECTED. WHY WILL THEY NEED SOMETHING SO CLOSE BY. THEY HAVE MORE THAN 4 AIRPORTS. WHAT ABOUT IF THE MONEY THAT IS GOING TO BE WASTED IN THAT AIRPORT IS GIVEN TO THE POOR PEOPLE DOES NOT THAT SOUND MUCH BETTER? SOME PLACE LIKE NEIBA, BARAHONA, DAJABON ETC WILL BE MUCH BETTER SINCE IT IS FARTHER AWAY FROM EXSITING AIRPORTS EVENTHOUGH IT MIGHT NOT SOUND GOOD TO THE US DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. NEXT THING WE KNOW WE HAVE PLANES LANDING AND TAKING OFF FROM PICO DUARTE
