Pickens County Airport Appreciation Day (JZP)
This sounds just too cool for words! It's reading about events like this
that make me wish that I didn't live in the city of San Francisco. Although my home airport in San Jose (Reid-Hillview) is just a 'stone's throw' by plane to any number of rural areas, I really hope to visit an 'airport appreciation day' in an area like yours. Sounds very homey and warm! Take care and thanks for the post! -- -- =----- Good Flights! Cecil E. Chapman CP-ASEL-IA Student - C.F.I.

I used to read Deborah's articles in Southern Aviator, back when it was a real newspaper, and I'd really enjoy being able to meet Deborah, Old Man, and their airplanes. Keep reminding us, Deb, I'm going to get there some day. Dave |

I like Pickens County Airport too, but not so much because I've seen hers. It's Pickens County Airport, Pickens, SC where the whole place is full of excellent wonderful people and a great place to fly in, chat with the locals, and buy avgas. And, boys were they ever nice when we had an airplane down there with a pranged landing gear. So if her Pickens is as nice as SC's Pickens, it's got to be a little slice o' heaven. |

Pickens, it's got to be a little slice o' heaven. Your Pickens County Airport is very nice indeed. We've stopped there several times and enjoyed some very nice airport moments! Thanks, Deb -- 1946 Luscombe 8A (his) 1948 Luscombe 8E (hers) 1954 Cessna 195B, restoring (ours) |
