    Thanks for the additional info on Airglades. My experience has been that if you listen to Unicom on the way in, you can work around the jumpers. As far as the attitude about experimentals, I have heard the same thing. They seem to prefer general aviation. However, there are at least five hangers in the hands of experimentals- two drifters, a challenger and a Titan, plus a couple others. Can't beat the rent around here if you prefer not to fold. Finally, there are lots of emergency landing sites in that area, unlike my neck of the woods... Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=362912#362912

    Lol; the thought occurred to me that the reason they maybe annoyed with experimentals is that someone may have rubbed someone the wrong away at some distant past time, and it started the we are better they they are complex. Jumpers and experimenters are close in personality traits, both go up not knowing the shape they will be in when they are back on the ground. Both groups in general like beer, so buying a beer or maybe Sarsaparilla if they are so inclined may just get them to decide its better to fly a Kolb, or maybe jump out of one than kibbitz slights. :-) Using radios on the Unicom friq in many cases will stop the jumper pilot from getting ticked off and blaming the "experimental" for delay$ in jump$.

    My FBO here was quite frank about it: Certified GA customers tend to buy his avgas and use his A&P services, so he moves those customers to the top of his hangar waiting list. For price comparison: a regular size, fairly new T-hangar would go for $250 to $275 / month, including AC power. 2500' narrow runway (but also no waiting for clearance!), 30 minutes from downtown Portland, OR.

If there is discrimination based on who spends the most money, the FAA can pull any airport funds that they may be getting. The threat of that may balance the playing field.

    Thanks, Richard - I had no idea this is regulated to this degree. I'm not sure if this particular airport receives federal funding, but it does not look like that would be a necessary requirement. In my case, though, I will be dependent on the FBO's help and support, and I'd hate to jeopardize our otherwise good relationship by filing a complaint. Besides, I cannot afford the hangar rent anyway. But this is important information for others looking for a hangar.

    Yes Airglades does and has gotten federal funding and is run but the count ry. They are in the process of working to get commerial freight haulers to use the airport as a hub. The Gyro club had a leased club house at the La Belle airport which is als o run by the county. They had they monthy fly-in there for several years.wi th good turn outs. The county would not renew the lease and tore the buildi ng down. I might ad the airport board are all older GA and look down on our type of aircraft. Five or six years ago they was close to 30 UL's and heav y UL's not including gryo's and now maybe a little more than a hand full be tween the two airports.
