Default Locate airports by radius from a given airport

Hi Matt,

CTB, old WW II Bomber training base, is the only "close" place to get fuel
on the east side. The Chevy dealer in Cut Bank (406) 873-5515, does rent a
couple cars and I think the Ford and Dodge dealer do too.

The road over the pass "Going to the Sun" is still closed (snow and
avalanches). The park Service is predicting a June 15 opening date.
The air field in Babb (49S) is pretty good (wide and long), but has the
normal gravel, gopher holes, cows, cow pies, elk, etc.
It does not have fuel service.
The Cattle Barron (former Babb Bar) does offer good steaks and within
walking distance (1/4 mile) from the west end of the air field.

Thanks for the note on the eastern side. How accessible is the park from
Cut Bank? Kalispell is closer, but Cut Bank seems to be easier approaches
and cheaper fuel. Correct?
