Our city council was told last night by the mayor that a fire truck was
going to have to be placed and manned at KELD because of "a federal mandate
requiring fire-fighting personnel and equipment be posted at the airport 15
minutes before and 15 minutes after the take-off and landing of each flight
at the airport." If the reg is for real I'm sure that "part 121" should be
in that sentence some where and we do have scheduled air service with Mesa.

I just find it strange that this regulation just got promulgated. So either
it did or we have been in violation for quite some time or the mayor is full
of crap.

But, according to the article the FAA going to give the city a fire fighting
truck to be delivered next month.
