Flight review in Philly?

[schmookeeg]

Heya all,

Am in Philadelphia PA on business all next week, and it looks like my Flight Review is due to expire at month's end. A nuisance item, but I'm stuck in a hostile land anyway, so curious if there's a good FBO/outfit you can recommend?

Singles/twins are fine. Don't have a lot of slack time over and above, say, a 4 hour block, so nothing toooooo crazy

Thanks in advance,

- Mike

I did my primary at N57 many moons ago... and have heard they are still top notch. But if Biden is in Wilmington, they shut down.

There is also KLOM - Wings Field.. one of the oldest airports in the area and the birthplace of AOPA. I rented a 172 a few years back with out too much hassel.. can't remember the name of the outfit but they were in the old shed.

And, Northeast Philadelphia Airport - can't give you a point of reference, but pretty sure there is something on the field that could help you out.

As for cheesesteaks.. Geno's and Pats.....

Have fun, are you staying in the city?

Thanks! -- Yep. Some place called Logan Square. The plan is to uber around, but I have time to get a car if that is wrongheaded. My hotel is across from my client's office building, so that part should be easy enough. I wonder if they have zipcar or similar.

Know it well... like you I am in CA, my corporate office is right off of Market Street - need to be there at least twice a year. There is an Enterprise car rental a few blocks off Market on 19th - short walk. You can Uber to Wings and Northeast, but Newgarden is going to require a car.. Check the TFR though if going Newgarden...

Recommend the Oyster House for dinner...

Have fun...
