Cleared for Takeoff
So I recently (well, a few months ago) became an AOPA ASN Volunteer for K33 - Salem Memorial in South-Central Missouri. I decided to do it as I remember constantly seeing there was nobody doing it for that airport (and I won't lie, the free hat and nice polo shirt pushed me into it as well ). So Salem is a very small municipal airport, which costs the town very little, so there has never been (well, in the 3 years I've paid attention) citizens calling for it's demise. I think that's because there's only an Air Evac Lifeteam base there, so they think the airport is necessary.
So, let's just use this thread to chat about ASN related stuff. (I searched for ASN and didn't find anything similar, but point me to it if I missed it.) Any input or comments besides my questions would be awesome as well.:
Are there any other AOPA ASN volunteers on here?
What airport are you?
What are some of your achievements?
Any suggestions for me?
Any good resource(s) that would point me to any threatening politics to the airport?
Anything I could do preemptively that could help solidify the airport's standing among citizens?
(While it's still an extremely primary thought of mine, I'm thinking about trying to become the airport manager. Being the ASN and doing something to help the airport could definitely help me out in the long-run, if I actually end up pursuing management.)
