very active strip with a large membership with welcoming members .Gas is availible when members are around. landing on 09 needs your attention on days if wind is strong from the west. land a bit long, as down drafts are present if you try to "land on the numbers" also if its a hot day,and winds are light and you are close to gross in a150 or a 140 piper you may want to take of down wind as trees are 35 feet tall right at threshold of 09 and there is a slight uphill grade when taking off towards the east, were as 27 , the land drops away over the cliff [comments from a fellow flyer how has flown out of here for many years}
