Need help regarding canon references to PIA
What is known about how far Kinnetik is from the Pittsburgh Int. Airport? And does anyone know if Brian and/or Justin would use a smaller local airport? And if they would, how far away from Kinnetik is it? And does it matter that much? I can't really remember anything, but would appreciate any input. Thanks!

The only time we see the airport is when Michael and David pick up Hank, then when Michael is on his way to Portland in 122. I would think that, since most airports are outside city limits, that it would be about a half hour away, max. Also, I would think that Justin and Brian would use the regular airport...that is, unless Brian bought a jet. Then they would use a jetport, which is sometimes attached to a major airport, or not far from one. Air traffic is strictly controlled, especially since 9/11. Only crop-dusters are outside of regular airports, as far as I know.

	This falls in line with what I remembered of Pittsburgh and could gleen from GoogleMaps. I just couldn't remember if there was anything in canon to contradict this. Thanks! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	PIA is located NW of Pittsburgh - figure a half hour to 45 minutes from downtown based on traffic. Kinnetik is located in downtown SE. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thank you for the info. I needed it for a drabble I posted at qaf_prompts. I ended up going another route(pun intended), with the airport reference, in my fic, but it is good info to have for future reference. Thanks again. (Reply to this) (Parent)
