County: Vision owes $40K

Okaloosa County officials are pursuing legal action against Vision Airlines to recover nearly $40,000 in unpaid fees for rent, fuel and utility charges that accrued while the carrier was flying out of Northwest Florida Regional Airport. Attorney Greg Stewart said a default was entered against Vision, and a motion has been filed to have the default converted to a judgment. Stewart said Vision Airlines has not responded to the county's inquiries since it paid off $117,000 in overdue passenger facility charges in February.
