Moving to CA

Wow, I thought this was a rather innocuous thread; a relatively
safe place to post, but alas, I think someone was just insinuated
to be classist and racist based solely on support of his favorite
aerodrome.

Oh jeez,,, it was all tongue-in-cheek. He IS classist though (wink) By the
way, what model BMW do YOU drive? ... :-}~

I still stand by my statement that the traffic to get to RHV,
especially at peak and near-peak times (like cutting the afternoon
at work a little short) is the main reason I prefer PAO. I'm
starting from Santa Clara (office) and that's just how it works
out. Also, from Campbell (home), which is a good ten miles
closer to RHV than PAO, it's a faster drive on weekends.
Both airports can get busy, and you might wait at PAO sometimes,

==== Might???? Sometimes???? Is that what ya call PAO's 'parking lot' in
the run-up area...??? ;-)

If ya have the money to burn,, ,then go ahead,,, but I'd rather see my
flying dollars translate into the most flying time I can possibly get and
don't get me started on how 'fun' it is waiting to get sequenced out of PAO
versus RHV.

I have seen [nice|beater] [foreign|domestic] [automobiles|aircraft]
at both airports.

Naw,,,, PAO is BEAMer and Mercedes land,,,, any beat-up cars you see come
from the impoverished help that they hire to service the 'rich folks'.
Working folk fly out of RHV.... ;-)

For the record, they're both fine airports. The wet rate for
your favorite airplane is higher at PAO. That's a fact. There
are restaurants near RHV that are good, and there are restaurants
near PAO that are good, too. Lunch near PAO will cost you more,
however.

Yes they are LOTS higher!!! Suggestion for those who aren't in the know....
Go to Nice Air, take your lessons or rent a plane at a lower HOBBS and
INSTRUCTOR rate AND you WON'T HAVE TO PAY MEMBERSHIP OR MONTHLY DUES!!!!!

Ladies and gentleman,,,,, Cecil,,, has left the building....... ;-)
