| [WFAA] Onalaska, Texas, has a secret. Nestled along the piney shores of an East Texas lake, Onalaska lacks an airport. A WFAA review, however, has found more than 1,000 registered aircraft claiming an Onalaska address. That’s equivalent to one plane for every three Onalaska residents, which is more per capita than anywhere else in the country.In fact, more planes are registered to Onalaska than the number of registered planes in entire cities such as Seattle, San Antonio, San Diego, or even New York. |
