Thanks, I'm glad too. It is a very nice airport, all new pavement,
friendly people. The last time I was there, in a car, I bought a sectional
and a few other things and they didn't have change so they gave me a free
sectional. I was back the next day and tried to pay but they wouldn't take
the money even then. Only takes one bad apple either working there on just
visiting to make everyone look bad. Next time I will take out the valuables
and leave it unlocked.

Pretty far fetched scenario but a real ****er. Glad you didn't lose the
Garmin.

Brakes on perhaps and fuel truck out of service...

FWIW, For almost 7 years, I've left my Maule all over NC at various
airports. I've always left it unlocked with only a pair of DCs laying out
of sight in the back. Lots of overnights and weekends. Never had an
incident of any kind. I worry but that worry has been unfounded so far.

Try Siler City 5W8 for fuel. About 15 miles from TTA. Always some of the
cheapest around.

TTA is another gorgeous GA NC airport that has recently been expanded or
in
this case, built new to replace its former self. Ditto for KTDF, KEXX and
many other long, clean surfaced county airports. We're not in Jersey
anymore!
