Professor Burge

A professor from 'Northwest University'? As in Northwest Airlines? Or as in Northwestern University? Sloppy, but it does serve as a warning that the details in this article are speculative and, perhaps, an instrument of those with a non-neutral and non-factual perspective.--128.135.149.78 (talk) 16:51, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Name

Is there a reference for this name? The link just calls it South Suburban Airport. Obina 23:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Why keep changing the content of this entry. The ALNAC name is a name given by a private group is is not officially the name for the airport. There is already an Abraham Lincoln Airport in Illinois why have another one. This also creates the idea that there are no other alternatives for the airport when there are currently 2 plans; one of which goes by this name and then South Suburban Airport by another. Please stop altering this entry to reflect personal initiatives (if any exist) and keep the facts straight or just delete the entry.

Merger

Abraham Lincoln National Airport and South Suburban Airport articles should be merged because they deal with the same subject. I don't care what the name of the article is, but only one article is needed to cover the Chicago South Suburban Airport / Third Airport / Abraham Lincoln National Airport topic. Abraham Lincoln National Airport has a lengthy historical section that seems to cover the same ground as this article covers. They are already linked together by history. Neither of the plans have been approved, and it seems that they are easily covered by the same article. Its not like I'm asking for a merger with the Midway or Gary airport articles, same topic one article. --Dual Freq 21:09, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Merger

These two should not be merged since they deal with two separate groups. It would be unfair to those opposed to the privately owned and operated approach to allow the two descriptions to be linked together.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bdevil ps2 (talkcontribs) 22:43, April 11, 2007 (UTC)

Merged

These two articles are the same topic, I've merged them here until an official airport name is selected IF the airport is constructed. --Dual Freq 21:59, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ALNAC vs. South Suburban Airport

I disagree that these two topics should be merged. The South Suburban Airport has been called several things in its 30 year history, such as Peotone Airport or 3rd Chicagoland Airport, among them. But, it wasn't until very late in the process that the name Abraham Lincoln National Airport came about.

Also, a political divide exists between the supporters of the ALNAC proposal and the SSA proposal. Therefore, I think to merge them would do a disservice to the rich history that came before Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr. proposed the name, Abraham Lincoln National Airport. 75.120.170.11 (talk) 23:32, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The merge was completed more than 6 months ago. --Dual Freq (talk) 23:38, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
