One the World’s Busiest Airports With Just a Single Runway in California Formerly called Lindbergh Field, San Diego International Airport features only one 9,401-foot-long runway, making it the busiest single-runway airport in the U.S. A record-breaking 25.2 million passengers used the airport in 2019, and while the numbers dropped considerably during the pandemic, they rebounded to 24.06 million passengers in 2022.  The landing approach here is famous for how close jets get to the skyscrapers of downtown San Diego, and because of its urban location, the airport can’t build any additional runways. Around the terminals, though, the Arts Program strives to keep travelers in a zen-like frame of mind through rotating exhibitions and performing arts events.

🚨🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨🚨 ANOTHER ELECTION FRAUD CONVICTION IN CALIFORNIA. Former Arroyo Grande mayoral candidate Gaea Powell has been convicted on NINE election-related counts — eight felonies and one misdemeanor — including fraudulent voting in three separate elections. And here’s the bigger problem: This wasn’t stopped before she ran. It wasn’t stopped before she voted. It wasn’t stopped before she ran again. Our election system cannot earn public confidence if residency and eligibility problems are discovered only after the ballots are cast. We need to verify who is running for office, who is voting, and where they legally reside — BEFORE the election, not prosecute the mess afterward.

The U.S. House passed the Ratepayer Protection Act in a 417-3 vote to address costs created by data centers and other large computational loads. The bill would require states to consider standards intended to prevent existing electricity customers from paying for incremental generation, transmission and distribution upgrades. Loads larger than 100 MW could face financial assurance requirements and guarantees covering costs if projects exit early. Analysts said the measure reinforces a transition already underway through state large-load tariffs and is unlikely to clear the Senate before the midterm elections ( but then what is)? The three no votes were progressive Democrats Summer Lee, Delia Ramirez, and Rashida Tlaib. Every Republican present voted yes

The California High-Speed Rail Authority might have violated state law with a proposed relocation for part of the project, according to a cease-and-desist letter sent to the authority.

September 2026 will be remembered as the month when two more European air forces crossed from paper contracts into metal on the ramp. Finland’s first two F-35As landed at Rovaniemi on 18 September after a ferry flight from Fort Worth via the Azores. The same week, Germany formally accepted its first Lightning II at Lockheed Martin’s Texas plant. Poland had already done both things months earlier: its first three Husarz jets touched down at Łask on 22 May, five more followed in late August, and eight aircraft now sit on Polish soil while another eight remain in Arkansas for training. Together the three programmes illustrate how Foreign Military Sales schedules, training pipelines in the United States, and domestic basing work in practice rather than in press releases.
