Your Airport Is The Gateway To Your Community

March 6, 2025

Originally published in 1993

Your airport is the first thing that visitors see when they fly in to your community. What kind of impression do you want to make? Are the restrooms working? Is there a clean place for a tired pilot to rest? Is the grass mowed? Are the structures painted and in good repair? These are all things that can influence how a visitor sees your town. Making sure the airport looks nice and that service facilities are in good working order can be accomplished with relatively little expenditure but can yield great returns. Let us know if you need or would like assistance in addressing these issues.
