STUDY REGARDING FEASIBILITY OF MAKING IMPROVEMENTS AT MARTIN STATE AIRPORT TO ACCOMMODATE LARGER AIRCRAFT. The Secretary of the Air Force shall conduct a study to assess the feasibility of extending the runway and upgrading the airfield at Martin State Airport to accommodate larger airframes than the A-10 aircraft currently utilizing the airfield and the C-130 aircraft planned to utilize the airfield, for the purpose of giving the Department of Defense greater flexibility to meet mission and maintain capability within the Maryland Air National Guard. ______
