Uncontrolled Arpts. w/ X-ing Runways

For background informational purposes for an upcoming meeting with the
FAA concerning our ongoing complaint with respect to local
discriminatory rules conrolling glider operations, I request
information pertaining to any known glider operations at uncontrolled
pulic airfields with crossing runways.

Primarily, I need to know the name and location of the airfield, as
well as the name of the glider operation or club. Also, a description
of any procedures that may be in place to ensure deconfliction of
traffic at the runway intersection would be helpful.

The need for this information is time sensitive.

I may be contacted directly at:

Truckee-Tahoe airport is another.

If the dog has fleas, I don't call the SPCA, I
contact the owner...

If I have a problem with someone, I usually go to their
boss if I can't resolve it. The FAA isn't the airport
manager's boss. Usually the city council is the boss.

I'd find the city councilperson most allied to
your cause. Then take up a collection of checks written
to that councilperson's reelection campaign. Then I'd
take all the checks (collected over a month or so)
and make a list of the donators, wives, and voting age
children and parents in the area. I'd give this and the
checks to the councilperson with a very general
description of the challenges. Of course I
would be very polite and brief and not use the
airport manager's name, but only his title, when
refering to him. I'd make it clear that there is
a difference of opinion, but nothing personal.

I'd also make sure to be an active member of every
organization on the field (or at least pay dues).
There's nothing like good representation...

Eyes open and common sense.
