|I wholeheartedly agree that there was a problem this year
on the
| perimeter road around the north 40. I am one of the
volunteers out on
| the Flight line for general aviation parking and camping
and noticed
| cars going 45 (!) on the road around 9-27 with people
everywhere.
|
| Totally unacceptable. I brought it up with the powers that
be, and the
| police/security were going to patrol on a more frequent
basis. The last
| thing anyone wants is to survive the Green/Rush lake
holds, and then
| Fisk, only to be clocked by a car on the flight line!!!
|
| Those of us in Flight Line Operations around 9-27 were
making a
| conscious effort to be good, but we spend most of our time
on the grass
| and hard surface taxiways anyway, out of everyones way in
cars.
|
| I agree there was a problem. There seems to be a
significant increase
| in the number of cars on the field in the last few years.
| Anybody from EAA should give way to a pedestrian
regardless, but there
| are people from every organization under the sun on the
field, and
| regulating them is impossible, except to enforce the 15mph
speed limit
| by the police and security.
|
| I hope that it doesn't take a tragedy to help fix the
problem.
| We are better than that.
