What's the closest airport to Crawford?

1. I think it is Waco. But I don't know who flies in and out of there.

It is a regional airport.

2. Austin

I think there's some little dinky thing in Waco, but otherwise, Austin is about an hour away.

[Midlodemocrat]

5. But you can fly in/out of Waco through Atlanta.

3. See Anarchy's post

4. Probably Austin

[Guaranteed]

6. You thinking of heading down there?

Waco's the closest well-known city that I'm seeing on mapquest.

[WilliamPitt]

7. They asked me to come

10. Keep us posted, Will.

and if you get to see that POS, give him the one finger salute from me.

12. Take Continental or American into DFW,

then you can transfer into Waco.

Rent a car in Waco, and you're set.

30. Bless you Will

8. Waco

But, it's probably easier to fly into Dallas/FtWorth and drive...

[WilliamPitt]

13. How long a drive from Waco? How long from Dallas?

[Guaranteed]

16. Waco's maybe 15-20 miles from Crawford.

Gotta head west down highway 84, then turn off and head north a bit. Gotta go around a rather large piece of water.

Dallas looks to be about 80 miles north of Crawford (rough estimate).

Austin looks to be slightly closer than Dallas, but to the south.

20. Yeap. Here's a google map ...

Will, Waco is the closest commercial service airport - the answer to your original question.

I just find it easier to fly into DFW from Boston on AA - direct, non-stop. Jump in a rental and drive. Not aware of direct flights from Boston to Austin.

23. Takes about 2 hours to drive from Dallas to Waco.

Maybe a little longer from the airport.

9. Waco

Continental or American

11. Driving directions from Waco to Crawford:

Please do go, will. This is going to be a turning point, I just know it.

14. Will, if you are coming fly into Dallas (DFW or Love Field) or to Austin.

We'll make sure someone can pick you up and deliver you there or help you with any other arrangements. Just let me know.

[WilliamPitt]

15. Cool

The only other thing I'd need to know is where I'd sleep. If I'd sleep.

[anarchy1999]

17. Will, I just talked to Hadi and there is free floor space at the Peace

House and there are several motels close by. Don't worry about, we'll make sure you are taken care of, just get here!

[WilliamPitt]

18. Thanks!

I guess the last bit I need is driving directions from Austin to the camp. Or do I leave the car somewhere and take a bus? How do I get to the spot itself?

[anarchy1999]

21. Sending you a PM.

24. The Peace House is just a few miles from staging area. Cars and people

are traveling back and forth.

The Peace House is serving as base (food, water, media you name it).

The PEACE HOUSE is easy to find.

19. waco, out of the Dallas-Fort Worth airport

ACT is its abbreviation for any search of flights

[rndmprsn]

22. the gates of hell international...

sad but the closest major airport is prolly george hw bush in houston

[TankLV]

29. That right - Houston InterContinental Airport.

I refuse to say the criminal's name.

I had to fly it back and forth once a week for three months ending in this July to work on the casino we were doing in Lake Charles, LA.

Take a Continental Express - they have tons of flights to every podunk and village idiot in that state.

Sometimes it's the ONLY flight.

[kentuck]

25. I look forward to your report, WillPitt..

I'm not sure we're getting the full story out of there..?

[Karenina]

26. Who can spin on a dime?

It's exactly that spontenaity, the POWER OF NOW problem-solving-truth-speaking-CAN-DO spirit of the American people that the ROTW has so long admired!

TPTB want to drag Cindy Sheehan away as though SHE and we, who pay their salaries, are in no position to demand ACCOUNTABILITY.

[dweller]

27. hot damn!

is Pitt on the road yet?
