It just occured to me that not all of you are familiar with Shreveport North (62PA) and its facilities. This is a private strip owned by John Shreve located on the property of the Footlight Ranch (see websote above). For those flying in, there is camping under the wing for $10.00 per night and the Rustic Bunkhouse for $15.00 per night. Use of toilet and shower facilities are included for either accomodation (bring your own towel). If you'd prefer to spend the night in a traditional motel, we can provide ground transport at no cost. I'll have about 100 gal of 100LL available on the field, and York Airport with a full FBO, is only about 7 minutes (by Aeronca) to the south. Sorry the pool will be closed on Labor Day.
