I'd recomend West Side (IWS), Woody Lesikar has run an upscale field
for many years and keeps pouring money into the operation. Facilities
are closer to what you would find at IAH GA than a dirt strip :O) It's
about 15 minutes from field south to I-10 and then 70mph on out to
Sealy.

100 LL is $2.66
First night tie down free if refuel.
$10.00 per night tie down AFTER first night even if refuel.

They have some arraingement with rental cars but for examople today
when I called they were booked up. If you can't get a ride from family
suggest yoo call them (281-492-2130) to reserve a car. You also might
be able to call one of the rental companies and they would deliver to
airport for you ???

Is family going to pick you up? Would solve transportation problem.

Think this covers most of the things you asked about. Don't know what
the current nav aids are and didn't ask when I called so be sure and
check.They have a Beacon on field if operational. (check NOTAMS).
Field is easy to see from air.

Looked Eagle Lake up on Internet and road map. Not a straight shot to
either I-10 or Sealy on even a secondary road. Their 100 LL listed
cheaper than West Side. If family picking you up and know the area,
then Eagle Lake might be the cheapest. If convience, then West Side is
probably the best?

Enjoy the wedding :O)

I'm interested in recommendations for an general aviation airport in
the Sealy, Texas area. I'd prefer reasonable fuel prices and low or
no fees. I'll be flying there this Thursday to attend a funer...
errr... wedding, :') and staying until Sunday. Airports within 20
miles or so of Sealy would be acceptable. An ILS approach isn't
necessary as I'll be vfr. Towered or untowered airports are o.k.
Grass strips would be considered if they have tie downs and meet the
other criteria for fuel, etc.

Thanks,
