    Yes. My daughter had a few things going on that morning, saying goodbyes and all, so we couldn’t leave for the airport until 11 or so. Then I waited for the fuel truck, which I should have done the day before. The first day could have been three flights of 3 hours. And while I don’t need the...

    You’re absolutely right. Not cheap. We went there because it was most convenient for a friend to pick us up at. Lake County would have been slightly cheaper. we made up for it by getting gas at N23.

    Yeah I decided to land since I didn’t want to land further at Kemmerer with only 15 gallons. We’re heading out to Valentine in 30 minutes. May make deviations if there’s weather or if we arrive too close to twilight.

    Thank you. One of my concerns was that we’d be landing after the FBOs close after 6 and wasn’t sure what would be available to transport us to the hotels. We have one suitcase each and normally I’d just put what I need in my backpack, and hoof it. I just remembered that some FBOs will leave...

    Hi. I'm flying across the country, West to East. I'd like suggestions for airports near Evanston Wyoming, or Roosevelt UT, or Malad City ID for fuel (reasonably priced) and good lunch nearby. Don't want to spend more than 2 hours there. Basically an airport in the flats East of Salt Lake...
