OR is highly unreliable... ;->=

Like I said, have to cogitate more. I'll give up highly bogus reasons, but
not the map/campaign itself.

However, one point of clarification: I never meant the 'band' had to be
empty, just not highly developed.

You know, now that I think about it, it could be a requirement of the
spacing guild. After the experience of housing developement around old
Terran airports, and potentially dangerous re-routing of approaches, they
may force colonies to put it in their by-laws. ;->=
