No runway lights. One paved and two grass runways (Runways mowed by
fossil fuel burning tractor). EVERYTHING else, including the office/
bar is solar. I dont have one of those fancy electric hangar door
openers (I need the exersize anyways) but I do have electric outlets
in my hangar. The owner of the field is not a tree hugger or a
granola, I think he was just looking for the cheapest way to do
things.
As for heat and air; Swamp cooler in the summer (Or we sit outside on
the patio for our cookouts on the weekends) and the place is closed
much of the winter (Owner travels south for the winter and no snow
removal but you can land and take off when the runway is clear). I
will admit it is a bit out of the ordinary but I brought it up to show
a little of what is possible.
