Seems to me it might be worth a couple of phone calls to the two

That's pretty much what I'd decided. I'll give "Aviators" a call
first; I've a bias towards husband/wife owned businesses.


They were very helpful on the phone, and even indicated that they'd
prop-locks available.


Glad to hear you had a relatively good experience..


With them, yes. With the airport, not as much.

There was no fuel I could buy on the east side this morning. The GAS truck
was broken, and "Aviators" is not permitted to sell fuel (they've a truck,
but can use it only for their own [school] fleet). So I had to taxi over
to North Atlantic on the west side.

North Atlantic has a truck (at least two, presumably, as they also sell
Jet-A), but apparently it can not or will not (I'm not sure which) visit
the east side of the airport.

Annoying, and almost funny.

But now at least I understand why people have been recommending alternatives
to Beverley.
