I suspect 83% of his restaurant traffic will be local townsfolk.


I suspect you're either right, or slightly underestimating the
number. There are numerous airport restaurants that I visit in AZ and
the locals usually outnumber the pilots 10 to 1. The big draw for the
locals is the getting to watch the airplanes as they eat.

Some airport restaurants are so popular with the locals that it's
difficult for a visiting pilot to get a table.
