2 planes from the private strip in So. DuPage, Brookeridge, have
wrecked in the 1990's on
takeoff, almost hitting traffic and the local fire district (Darien)
built a special station just
for them. Pay for your own toys, jet-setters


Is the fire station limited to serving only the airport? How many jets are
based at Brookeridge?


It's one of those subdivisions with the houses and hangars facing a
private
strip, props, no jets.


FAA has no regs that mandate any firefighting at GA airports -- that is
a matter of community option. If a community decides to put a fire
station at he airport, it is there to serve the whole community, not
just the airport.
