Default GA User fees

BTW, I'll be flying in the right seat of the 172 next week from ISP to
Danbury. Is ground (car rental) transportation pretty easy to get there?


Yes, if you stop at Reliant (where I'm based) you can get a taxi into
town for something like $6-10. At least that's what Reliant tells me -
I didn't think you could get anything for $6 these days. They can also
arrange a car rental from Hertz or Avis to be waiting for you,
especially if you have a card number ("wizard number"?) to give them.
They can also do Enterprise, but might not be able to get it on the
field. Reliant is at (203) 743-5100. Call ahead. They don't have a
courtesy car, but if it's quiet and a short distance one of the line
people might be able to give you a ride. There is a restaurant/bar
right in the same building; the food is good but the nonsmoking area
isn't always open and the restaurant ("McNalley's") is usually closed
for lunch. A short walk takes you to the Marcus Dairy. It's a lunch
counter type place with good food and wonderful ice cream. The mall is
also nearby (you fly over it on the approach to 17) and there's good
pizza and the regular mall food court stuff.

If you get a car, all of Ridgefield and Danbury is open to you.
