I'm flying out of Rock Hill, SC (UZA) which is about 15 miles to the south.
They have a nice flying school/rental outfit and a FBO on the field (5500' X
100", ILS, VOR, NDB, etc.) Pilot controlled lighting. No obstacles to speak of
in the immediate area, unlike Wilgrove.


Yea, that broadcast tower at wilgrove commands my full attention.

I stopped by Rock Hill a couple weeks back. Nice place and the guy
running it was real cool. It looked like they kept a couple of
Alaruses (Alari?) a Warrior, 172 and 152 for rent. A bit of a hike
from anywhere but south charlotte, tho.

I need to try try out that alarus. I curious to see what it's like to
fly a plane younger than myself.
