What parts of the airport are solar powered? *Runway lights? *Lights in the FBO? * How do they supply heating/air conditioning? -- Jay Honeck 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. Frank |
