Re: Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Labor day weekend???

Gary,

Most airports do not allow junk vehicles, household goods, etc at the airport.
I do agree with the lessening of pilots/families at the airports.
My little town owned airport has 7 hangers.
2 of the hangers see regular activitiy.
the others have hanger queens and junk airplane parts.
