I'm heading up to Panama City this week-end from the West Palm area. Going to look for some property in the area where the new airport will be relocated. Bought a few lots last year near Compass Lake in the Hills, going to check them out, I haven't even seen them yet! This will be the first International Airport built in the last 20 years in the US.
Any ideas about the area?:

FAA Signs Off on New Panama City Airport
September 18, 2006

The Federal Aviation Administration has issued its Record of Decision approving the relocation of the Panama City-Bay County International Airport (pictured). "Relocation" in this case will actually mean the development a brand-new airport for the Florida panhandle city, a long-awaited project that promises significant real estate growth in its wake.
"The Record of Decision is a very important step in the development of the new airport, but not quite the last step," Randy Curtis, the airport¹s executive director, told CPN this afternoon. "We still need a permit from the Army Corps of Engineers and a couple of state permits, but we expect those soon. Another major part of the process will be the sale of the existing airport. Bids on that are due by next Monday."
