Airports within flying distance to my home base

How’s about we figure out how to see where PilotGround fans are covering the US? Maybe state a handful of local airports of where we regularly fly to? I can easily get to: KOKV, KMDT, KGED, KRIC, KCHO, which surrounds the Washington, D.C. area.

Love the new profile picture!

KOKV Winchester Regional Airport

KMDT Harrisburg International Airport: I’m usually not to far from here when visiting in-laws during the summer.

KGED Delaware Coastal Airport: sounds like a highly educated operation based on the identifier. Haha

KRIC Richmond International Airport

KCHO Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport

You pulled a @LeeGriffing on me… having me look up identifiers every time he refers to a town over the last 15 years! Haha

If we’re talking Ohio:

88D Scott’s Airport

89D Kelly’s Island

KPCW Port Clinton (where I first soloed)

If we’re talking Florida:

KPBI Palm Beach International (to clear customs)

MYAW Walkers Cay

MYGF Grand Bahama

MYGW West End

X58 Indian Town (First option for renting a hanger at some point)

F45 North Palm Beach (second option for renting a hanger at some point.)

KMTH Florida Keys Marathon (Grab Food at Island Fish Company with @balls_to_the_wall )

There’s SO many destinations down here it’s hard to come up with a list!

@RobertBerger I knew you could look it up and its good for ya! It’s not like I brought up obscure, remote ones. I spell out small destinations but feel like I should be able to say LAX or MCO. KGED is a favorite of the Biden’s. Beautiful area though, Rehoboth Beach. Flown into there several times.

@DFreed1 I love this idea.

Not going to lookup MCO… Sorry, not going to happen! haha

@LeeGriffing what are the go to spots going to be with the new super cub?

My point is, its one you shouldn’t have to look it up. You probably ought to know it. Scott knows what it is. Its not like I’m dropping identifiers for Ukrainian Class D airports.

I would know if you mentioned UKLL… I’ve flown out of that one back in the day!

Good question… I’m gonna hit up 88D a lot of course, and the islands. I have a long way to go getting proficient in this thing. I’ve never flown a Super with small wheels so its taking some getting used to the flare height and sight picture. Got my confidence back though - so thats a start.
