ESSEX SKYPARK, a charming single-runway airport located near Baltimore, will remain open after an effort by the county to shutter the historic field for redevelopment. Local pilots banded together against the county plan, with the support of AOPA, and renegotiated the lease and terms of the airport and saved the historic aviation facility for many years to come—99, to be exact."  —AOPA Pilot, June 2013
