airport in Frisco
Technically this is correct.

Want to fly in from wherever and leave a plane there unattended for a week or so while you have a vacation?
There is no one there. It’s a strip of pavement.

FYI that strip gets average 25 flights a day. At least one charter airline uses it.

There is an airport in Frisco and at least my realty company did me a solid.
What do you mean? Hatteras is open if you fly into Frisco? Are they policing beaches? Can’t wait for this BS to be over so we can all get back to social distancing (kiting).

Unbelievable how the majority feed of this BS and agree to taking away freedom that’s unnecessary.

Sorry no Hatteras is only open for permanent residents and I heard they are policing that. Not sure if the beaches.

Here is the hatteras webcam looks pretty quiet but a few walkers.

Fingers crossed for a fast opening!

If people keep distance and masks in areas with more people it should be ok.

A city in Germany called Jena, has mandatory masks since 12 days...and no new infections since.

So it does help a lot.

Where are you seeing that, PJ? Those dates sound about right for Currituck County (Thurs. and May 15 were discussed at Commissioners meeting last night), but I'm not finding any official word from Dare County (i.e., Hatteras) yet. Dare is supposed to announce something later today.
