Mattress Village Airport Incident

The Mattress Village Airport Incident or Mattress Village v. the Liberal Aviators as quoted by many commentators was a controversial incident at Dan Beronews Regional Airport, following the demolition and bulldozing of the airport's main runway, due in part to the village's lack of construction materials, most notably asphalt. The computer systems, radars and weather systems from the 25 ft. high air traffic control tower was stolen, which is rumoured to be used for wiretapping. As a result, a litigation between the National Airports Authority, the Federal Antarctic Aviation Administration and SkyJet Aviation Holdings. Afterr the runway was demolished, a SkyJet Flyer Pontrier Dash 8 Q400 was heavily damaged after the runway's asphalt was removed, thus allowing the aircraft to slide during rainy conditions, and overran the runway into a ditch as a result. Mattress Village was sued for 2.5 million Fish to replace the runway and stolen computers.
