I don't think we blasted a Med-Flight hangar. The guy on my wing said it

But I suppose that would explain why there were there on a Saturday
afternoon.


You're right, it wasn't Med-Flight. It was just the maintenance
hangar. No problem. Sorry.

Yeah, it's kind of funny, but we absolutely could NOT believe that the big,
brand new building was the "real" FBO for little folks like us! At every
other airport of Huntsville's size that we've visited, the big, beautiful,
new building out front is always the terminal for commuter airline
service -- NOT the FBO for Spam Cans.


Nice, isn't it. It took a long time, but we're proud of the the whole
place.

In the absence of any answers to our inquiries on Unicom, we pulled in front
of what LOOKED like the FBO, trying to find the gas pumps -- which was the
older brick building with the sign out front. (I'll bet that used to be the
FBO, right? It looks like every other FBO in the country.)


It was, and I guess I can see what you're saying. We have a sort of
"Leave it to Beaver" airport now and it is a little disconcerting to
see the first time.

When the lady inside the "real" FBO finally answered, we taxied over to the
gorgeous new building -- which is VERY impressive, I must say. At some
point along the way we must've blasted the poor guy inside the open
maintenance hangar -- although, as I said, neither of us thought we were
close enough to have done such a thing.

Still, after over three hours in the air, "road head" can make you goofy.
I apologized profusely, and we moved on.

Please come back. I was way too harsh on you with your red-neck
comments. Us red-necks have some pretty thick skin. I think you know
what I mean.
