The letter below that I received from the Airport Director tells you
how to park for $5 a night, no FBO fees or involvement.

Sir,

If you park on the west side of the airport on the terminal ramp
(between A5 and
A6) in any yellow tie-down, you will not be charged FBO fees. The FBO
personnel
may help you park, but if you don't actually buy fuel or go into their
building,
you should not be billed. There is a self-pay box at the glass wall on
the
north side of the terminal building where you can pay your City
overnight fees
of $5/night.

The people who are picking you up can just park out in front of the
terminal
building and then wait for you inside the terminal boarding area until
you come
in from your aircraft. Parking is free.

Enjoy your stay in SDL.

Does anyone know if there is an FBO at SDL that does not charge the $50
ramp fee! This is getting crazy. They must be trying to scare off the
piston crowd.
