Downtown Aviation
We went by Downtown Aviation today. I finally looked up how to get to the airport. If you look at a map it’s obviously very close, but one previous outing didn’t find it. So, we took a look as we were out anyway. Neat place. It’s about 3 miles away in a beautiful location. We talked to someone from the flight school and got some good information. Looks like that’s where I’ll go when I get back to flying again. They’ve got a nice fleet of mostly new aircraft. I was excited. In doing a walk around it turns out that there are some WWII birds based there (the Hawker Sea Fury was buzzing around), and even the WMCTV 5 chopper is based there. Being in such close proximity to all the hospitals, apparently they medical helicopters are frequent visitors. One came in for some gas while we were there. I’m getting excited to fly again.
