Yeah, when I hear that, I am NOT thinking about moving a message up. I'm not thinking about peanuts on a sundae either.

Hmmm, "bumping" has certain connotations too!Yeah, when I hear that, I am NOT thinking about moving a message up. I'm not thinking about peanuts on a sundae either.
Why do cities run FBOs? Why wouldn't they just levy a flowege fee and rid themselves of the hassle of running an operation? Charge all the FBOs the same fee and you're out. City gets the money and none of the hassle.
More to come for sure. I have more open records requests to fill out. LOL
Because there is a ****pot more profit to be made.
Would love to know how much it costs to operate that airfield and how much they loose each year...
Henning - that simply is not true - every city/county run operation basically loses money because they provide city/county benefits and wages to the employees. A private contractor can hew costs back and control what they spend - the county simply pi$$es money away . . .
I know specifically of one county run operation that 'must' make $1 on every gallon of avgas - an airport less than 20nm away is $1.50 less per gallon. Guess whose flowage rate has not gone up in the 15 years the county has run the operation?
This is not brain surgery. Its a small South Carolina airport that is close by many others - and its redneck guys who have jobs for their buddies basically doing nothing.
We're talking Texas, not New Jersey, city employees make squat.
95k to 'manage' 1 guy to mow the grass sounds pretty generous
The first priority of government at all levels is to provide a substantially higher standard of living for it's employees compared to those in the public sector. It would be interesting to know the retirement benefits for those city employees.Really? That's a lot? $95k in staffing for an airport? How much fuel do they flow? How many hangars and other rents do they take in?

That's one guy.
There are directors of international airports who make less.
How many employees does he have?
Well, if you are a student of film, the name "Douglas Niedermeyer" is best recalled by Dean Wormer's famous instruction: "give it to Niedermeyer. He's a sneaky little ****!"
You'll have to fill in the blank yourself.
This is fun. It should be a tv show. Who would play Ultrasonix
Now I have a question. How do I post a pdf document on the forum?
Flip-in-heck,
