Maybe some of you know what is going on with SJC?


You'll find two Transient Parking areas depicted on this airport

Presumably there is not charge for tie down there.


The only transient parking at SJC is at either the Jet Center or ACM
Aviation. One guy, A. C. Markula (one of the early big shots at Apple
Computer) owns ACM Aviation and 1/3 of the Jet Center. There is no
difference is tie down or fuel prices. At one FAA Wings safety seminars,
they even admitted as much, stating that the Jet Center called ACM every
morning to set the fuel price.
