Default Block Island (KBID)

Don't rule BID out. A couple of years ago they were working on the runway,
but it was just a crack filling operation. They required prior permission-1
hour in advance. I called them and they told me to radio in about 10 or 15
minutes ahead so they could clear the runway. 3 or 4 other planes were about
to turn around when they heard me call, and followed me in. Doesn't sound
like a repaving operation if it's just going to be 1 day. They might just be
filling cracks again.

P.S. If you do go to Nantucket, be sure to at least LOOK rich. And hide your
camera if you bring one.

Thanks everyone for the information. I will check the closure to be sure,
but it looks like I will have to find another place to go for this
particular trip.
