I'll be flying in to Houston Hobby in a few days. Any tips for a little
plane driver?

There's a few flight schools on the airport, so the controllers are used
to
dealing with students / low time pilots who might not be comfortable at a
Class-B towered airport... Watch out for the intersection of Rwy 35 and
Rwy
04 -- there's a bump that can get you back airborn if you still have a bit
of speed when you cross it while landing on 35... But then again, that
would
require the winds to be out of the north and that hardly *ever* happens
around here... At night, the airport is hard to find due to all the lights
of the city encroaching upon it... You don't see the runway lights until
you
are nearly already lined up on the runway...

Oh, BTW, why you flying into there when there are so many smaller airports
around town?
