Default Uncontrolled fun

"Gunfire"??? I have no idea about anything like that, the last thing
that might have been NOTAM worthy was the paraglider fly-in in May
(the next one's the weekend after Labor Day). We did have a BONfire,
though... Yes, it's still open, quite busy on weekends, every hangar
full, about 1/3 GA and 2/3 ultralights of all sorts, and lots of
people fly in on Saturday mornings just to hang out, it's that kind of
place.

It IS slated to close, if and when the development deal goes
through... but the developer's option expires next month and they
still don't have the DEP permits, so anything could happen. At this
rate it looks like even if it goes through, it'll be open at least
until November.

Is N04 still open, and can I land my Champ there? The wife

gotten a very friendly reception. I know it was scheduled
to close and a couple of months ago I asked FSS for any
notams. They mentioned something about "gunfire" at the
airport the previous weekend and suggested I stay well away.
Was this bad info or something else?
