2. There's probably chartered and private planes arriving at Midway
from all over the US, I would think.

7. Most jet charter companies are incorporated in Delaware
just like a very high percentage of every other kind of corporation.

16. That does not mean they have locations there..
... most do not.

And I sincerely doubt anyone checked where a corporation was incorporated when checking to where where flights originated.

20. Most flight tracking databases will show the registered owner when queried.
The company I fly for is a Delaware corporation and that is what shows up if you go to flightaware.com or most other similar sources...but what you say is true if you're only asking about departures and arrivals. (We rarely go to Delaware)
