We are keeping CRG and VQQ in my area. SGJ got the axe though. I agree with a lot of the comments I've been reading about this... There are a lot of airports that could really be just fine without a tower. Airports like CRG which has 4 flight schools, 4 x 135 Charter companies, MedFlight services, Police Aviation, Banner Tow Operations, and 2 x FBOs (not to mentioned under the floor of a Charlie and wedged between 2 military Deltas) needed to keep our tower. I think the airports that needed to keep them, did. And those that did not, didn't.
