The Federal Aviation Administration
announced Friday that Santa Fe
is among 149 airports around the country set to lose funding for their air
traffic control towers because of federal budget cuts.
It was not immediately
clear what impact the cuts will have on the state capital and mountain tourism
destination, which has just in the past few years won back commercial jet
service.
American Airlines currently has daily flights between Santa
Fe and Dallas and Los
Angeles , and United plans to begin service to Denver later this spring.
Double Eagle, a
general aviation airport in west Albuquerque ,
is also losing tower funding.
