Hi guys -

Anyone know of a good place in Fort Worth, Texas to rent? Just moved to the area and would like to get back into GA flying.


Thanks!

I'd highly recommend Huffman Aviation (www.flyhuffman.com). Great group of people there on a nice airport and you'll be hard pressed to beat the prices.

Speaking of that, I think I'm going to go do a little flying today.

I also use Huffman, small operation wi good people and affordable older equipment. If you want to split it sometime, let me know! I'm trying to get up to ATP minimums.

Sounds good.

I'm not certain, but I think it's a very small world... Do I know you?

 

[C150J]

I think we do! I was coming on board at your last gig right before you got the new one!

 

[FlyingPoke]

Haha I thought so! Let me know when you get checked out.

Hope the new gig is treating you well.

I spend way too much time in ftw, what are some of their rates? I didn't see them listed on the website.

 

[FlyingPoke]

I think I was quoted right at $80/hr for a block of 152 time.

 

[Ajax]

Oh man, that'd be great. Is that the IFR certed one too?

 

[FlyingPoke]

Yessir

If it's not too much of a hike for you, go say hi to Ryan down at Skymates.

I was planning on it last time, but I was just there ferrying a plane back and my ride back was early so I didn't have any spare time

I just checked out Sycamore Strip today as I'm just moving back to Fort Worth also. They weren't the most glamorous and it was a small airport but it seemed kinda nice that way. Their website is sycamorestrip.com and identifier 9F9.

I am moving back to the Ft. Worth area but I have nothing to contribute as the flight school I was with is no longer in business.

Sycamore was always a fun one to fly into. Another fun airport is Hicks field! It's not as challenging as Sycamore, but is it's a neat little airport. The airport is privately owned for public use. Theres a uniqueness to the place with a lot of really nice hangars with people staying in very nice lofts above their aircraft. Lots of RV's, a fleet of Yaks, a fleet of T-28's, and many more. It's a really cool place!
