I was astounded when I pulled into Fairbanks and the tower asked me if
I wanted to taxi to the "camping area". The camping area had a pullout
for each plane. Each site had its own picnic table and firepit. There
was a community pagoda, cut firewood and bicycle. Best camping
ammenities I have ever found at an airport.

I have found you can camp at most small airports. Especially the ones
where there are no "facilities". You can camp at my home base, Boulder
(1V5). But only for a day or two. Its tolerated but not encouraged. I
have also "camped" inside the FBO at numerous airports. Just put my
bag on the couch and spent the night.
