## Description

Set among Amish farmland in Pennsylvania Dutch Country, Lancaster Airport in Lititz mixes business aviation with small commuter flights — and shares its roads with horse-drawn buggies. Air cargo does not exist here; the county's goods truck via Harrisburg or Philadelphia. The freight that matters locally is unusual anyway: Rock Lititz next door builds and rehearses the world's biggest concert tours, moving stage equipment by the truckload, and Julius Sturgis opened America's first commercial pretzel bakery in Lititz in 1861. Lancaster itself holds an odd record — capital of the United States for a single day in September 1777.
