Landing in KFRG
I agree with what Marco wrote, but some more detail: Call ahead to both FBOs
and get a name with any quote on ramp fees and such. Both FBOs are clean and
friendly and pricey.
The ramp area in front of the Terminal Building/Fire Station was available
free for use of the resturant, but since 9/11 that's hit or miss. The
terminal doors open from the ramp side, but you'll need Rescue or Security
to get access back to the ramp.
I've found for any quick (30min) turn around, tell ground your going to the
pumps at ECHO area (ask for progressives). The self serve pumps are about 60
feet from a man-gate leading to a small general access parking area (very
obvious when you get there). Have your friend park there and wait for you,
then make your exchange inside the fence and your done.
PS the $2.50 landing fee is not avoidable, goes to the the NYSDOT (not the
FBOs), and will be mailed to the registered owner if not paid thru the FBO.
