You know Spike, you're right! I didn't even think about it in that light! I do so much there now that it almost seems commonplace to me... isn't that sad? We have a great event coming up on November 17, when we celebrate HobbyFest. The B-17 and B-25 from Lone Star Flight Museum in Galveston will be hopping rides, and we're going to have a whole bunch of aircraft on static display - a SkyRaider, a Huey, an AC-47, our Lodestar and raffle Cessna 140, and many more. Probably will have a LifeFlight and Houston Police chopper, as well as a Stearman and a PT-19 on display too. That would be a good opportunity to stretch the legs on your Bo there, Spike. You should grab Dave and Troy and head on down to Hobby on that Saturday .
Mike, this would be a great opportunity for filming, albeit a little soon. Hobby has to be one of the most GA-friendly Class B airports, if not THE most GA-friendly, and events like this go to prove it.
I am not aware of any other long-time airport that has managed to salvage its older terminal (even if HOU did it by accident), and that makes it a real treasure. I cannot stand in that place without hearing, in my "mind's ears," the sounds of big, round engines outside.
Would like to make it the 17th, but think that flying to Houston for a fly-in- on my wife's birthday - is not the height of common sense!
Ya' never know, though...
