The Elmira Corning Regional Airport will finally be able to undertake a long planned apron reconstruction project, thanks to a federal grant. U.S. senators Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand announced this week the approval of more than $27 million in grants for 13 New York airports, including Elmira. The funding was administered through the Federal Aviation Administration's Airport Improvement Program, and will be used to revitalize airports and enhance airfield safety at airports across New York state, according to a news release.
