A May 1982 newsletter from the Port of Seattle and King County describing an airspace study examining overlapping flight patterns between Sea-Tac International Airport and Boeing Field. The study found that delays caused by these overlapping traffic patterns were expected to grow gradually through 1990 and accelerate through 2000, particularly at Sea-Tac. The public was invited to a May 18, 1982 meeting to review preliminary findings and provide input on whether to proceed with identifying solutions to reduce aircraft delays.
