KVNY Passenger Drop Off?

[Shawn]

Looking for some local advice. Need to drop off a passenger at Van Nuys KVNY tomorrow and I see that they do not have any public ramp or terminal...only FBO's. Where is the best and cheapest place to drop them off? Won't need fuel and will be literally a slow roll to push them outta the plane! Signature wants $36 ramp fee. Usually not a cheepskate but will hopefully be on the ground for only 10 min.

...or another airport recommendation in the N. LA/Hollywood area other than Santa Monica. Will be coming up from KMYF in San Diego then headed to Nor Cal.

I used. Bob Hoover jet center, same as cutter aviation , the parking was 15.00, great service and it's right next to the run up area on the north west end

Easy drop-off and gate at Southeast end of Alpha where American Aviation is. They will be at 16426 Vanowen. There's a hangar and a helicopter service / school. Remember, all the way until Alpha ends.

Or you can go a couple miles away to Whiteman, in Pacoima. Transient parking next to an on-field reastaurant.

It's also worth calling the FBOs, as they will sometimes waive fees if you are there for a short time and require none of their resources. This works wt KOAK, for instance, but it doesn't work everywhere.
