Talk:Brownsville/South Padre Island International Airport

Random Facts
Actually, the primary instrument runway at BRO is long enough to handle commercial jets such as the Boeing 737 type operated by Southwest Airlines, but there are always other factors to be considered when evaluating an airfield for jet service. (Before its demise, Braniff International served BRO in the 1970s with Boeing 727-200 series aircraft, a model that was slightly longer and heavier than Southwest's present-day 737s.) I haven't done any research into the present condition of the airside facilities at BRO, so there may be other factors at play, such as runway strength, weight restrictions, structural integrity of runways and taxiways, availability of navigational aids, or flight-path obstructions, to name a few. --abl, 17:45, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

You're right about that, I removed that post after I saw someone posted it. The runway is currently able to handle just about any type commercial aircraft, from small commuter jets to B747s (though I'm not too sure if it can handle the A380 or the larger Antonov aircraft) --Mcamargo 22:16, 3 August 2006 (UTC) And according to the A380 page on Wikipedia, if a runway supports B747s, then it should also support the A380, so I guess it can handle it as well.--Mcamargo 23:22, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

American Airlines
Yes, American is in talks to come to Brownsville. But until it is finalized, it can't be assigned to gates or have aircraft assigned to it, otherwise we could put other rumors of Southwest airlines or Mexicana Airlines. Be patient, it will happen soon. 25or6to4 (talk) 19:45, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Pan American Airways
The references to Pan American Airways suspiciously look like copy-and-paste operations from their website and seem like a form of advertisement, especially "For information go to panamericanairways.net. 70.104.131.200 (talk) 13:54, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
