'Emergency' Plane Stop The county airport is one of five New York State airports named by the Civil Aeronautics Administra- tion (CAA) as "alternate" or emergency stops on the New York- Detroit route of Northwest Air- lines. The stops have been designated solely^as a safety measure, - CAA officials said, and will be used only in event of adverse weather condi- tions or lack of gasoline. Other al- ternate stops are Newburgh- Walden Airport, and airports at t Dunkirk, Endieott and Dansville, Northwest Airlines recently was granted a certificate to operate the New York-Detroit route and flight schedules are expected to begin .soon.
