November 1, 2025The airport has 11 tie downs and you can remain for 24 hours. No nighttime landings. The pilots lounge has computer for gaining access to Weather data. They have a First Flight stamp for your logbook and fine bathrooms. The monument and first Flight markers are all open. However, the visitor center is closed due to the government shut down. You can peer thru the glass at the visitor center and see the right flyer.

October 25, 2025Good small airport. I observe many pilots do not review the A/FD. It is all present there.

June 25, 2025Just flew my family in today under VFR and there was a glider about 5 miles north that didn't have ADS-B. It flew right below me and I didn't see him until I was practically right on top of him. Very little separation. Absolutely terrifying. Be warned for all aircraft going into FFA.
