St James is about 100+ miles SW of the Twin Cities. About 30-some miles from
New Ulm, Mankato and Fairmont.

For those interested, there is a Fly-In Breakfast at Fairmont, MN (FRM) this

Our club has planes at LDJ and CDW, both in Northern NJ. I tend to fly more
from CDW (it's about 10 minutes from me, as opposed to 30+ for LDJ), but
I've been flying at LDJ a lot over the past few weeks.

We looked at several houses out in that area, but then this house came
up so we jumped on it. The company Im workng for is about to buy a
King Air and is looking at possibly keeping it here at Meadowlake so
that would make it nice and handy for me.

Except Meadowlake doesn't sell Jet-A; workable, but a PITA.

Which King Air are they looking at?

Colorado Aviation at COS is awesome, and about the cheapest Jet-A in the
state. Excellent shops, too.

We're fixing to relocate from Meridian Business Park (APA...$$$$$$,
Englewood...$$$$$$$) to the ColoSprings area. Both of our two main partners
live way south of Denver and find it harder to get into town than just going
south twice as far. Also, we're finding office space is about 60% less $$.

George, I sneaked away from a nearby party to gaze at the aircraft at Old
Bridge just this past Saturday. Them trees look mighty close to the runway.
Have they ever caused a problem? Also, do you have a hangar there? They seem
plentiful (at least compared to Farmingdale).

Well, the trees at the departure end of 06 don't usually cause any trouble. They
extend far enough away from the airport that you don't get a sudden downdraft or
anything. The ones at the other end make it real hard to hit the numbers when landing
on 06 and they tend to hide aircraft on short final. Trees don't seem to cause any
problems landing.

The line of trees along the edge of the runway are a different matter. These trees
tend to blanket crosswinds. The result is that you'll be slipping like mad to get in
in a stiff crosswind and it eases up about 50' AGL. The effect is a little flukey,
however. I've learned that, if I can keep the runway in front of the nose on final, I
will be able to make a decent landing there 'cause it gets easier the lower you go.

I don't have a hangar, but there are quite a few, and they're building more. The
airport owners just jumped the price from $300/month to $450/month, and a few people
are pulling out. They're all relatively new, metal construction, with electric
folding doors.

Tiedowns also just went up (from $75 to $85/month), and the owners just implemented a
requirement that all aircraft on tiedown have prop locks. They'll sell you the lock
and buy it back from you when you leave.

They have a "smart" UNICOM there that's a PITA. If you click the mic three times, it
gives you all the airport info. Seems like a good idea, but, if you're on the ground,
it's constantly stepping on aircraft transmissions. If you're in the air and need the
info, aircraft transmissions are constantly stepping on it. It's a real nice feature
when you're coming in from a long run and it's late evening with nobody around, but
they really should shut it off when things are busy.

I'm tied down at the end of the hangar that's closest to the road. The Maule that
looks like it's held together by the layer of bugs on the leading edge. :-)

I was just at Old Bridge last week. Fortunately, I landed on the runway
with the numbers as opposed to the larger runway w/o.

Yeah, the final approach is a real bear coming into the big one from the northeast.

Martin,

From my experience there as a PPL student, I'd say they're doing ok. They
have two very nice 172SPs, 3 good 172M/Ns, 2 152s (I've not flown them...),
a twin Seneca, an Arrow and they just added a 182P on a leaseback.

As far as I know, the owners are a Father/Son with the last name of Guilfoy
(Tom Sr/Jr ... aka T1/T2.)

Instructor-wise, they've suffered a little bit of turnover of late but I
think it's more of a coincidence as it would seem that pilot hiring is
beginning to pick up some and one would expect the highest time CFIs to be
moving up the ladder, right? (If that is what they were wanting/waiting to
do...)

According to their website, no they don't rent only to students...give them
a call:

Sorry it took so long to reply, I was on vacation in the rural
farmlands of Mn, where computer time was very limited. Yea, we
looked into the Jet A situation here at 00V but I would be doing most
of my pickup's at APA so I would get the fuel there.

They were looking at at King Air that was for sale here at COS but I
just got word that it had sold. All in the same breath they tell me
that a Cheyenne III would be considered.
