[Scan-DC] Plane down Gaithersburg

[Doug Kitchener via Scan-DC]

It's kind of a light industrial area, so I think it's just the naming.  Lots of warehouses, small business, plumbing / heating / electrical contractors, auto repair and body shops, that kind of stuff.  Hope this clarifies.

What is the difference between and airpark and an airport excluding the 
difference in spelling?
