RE: Buttonwillow CA
And yes, I live in Pahrump....rual area west of Vegas. After 30 years in that hole I decided to move. Now I have no crime, no traffic, no crime, lots of propery, no crime.....well you get the point.
As far as travel, I drive 140 miles round trip to go fly on the weekend (I fly in Vegas at the SilverBowl) so distance is nothing to me. I have an option of a private airport in Napa Valley that I could and now based on the complications with BW will most likely use for the test flying.
I know it may sound stupid to some of you that I would travel that far to have ideal conditions to test, but I have a lot of time and money invested...it would be stupid to loose it because I could not make a drive.
All I know is I ALWAYS land hot on a new airplane and with that in mind I will need the extra room.
