Default Jet friendly flying fields?

Hi,

I live outside of Buffalo, New York. There’s always a concern that my local AMA flying field may not always be around because of new development in the area. Is there any jet friendly clubs/fields within 2hrs of Buffalo (ie:Canada,Pennsylvania, around Rochester, NY..etc.) I would be willing to pay membership dues for the 2005 flying season if necessary.
I have too much invested not to find a backup location.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Steven

there are a few of us in our area that had to look for another place to fly our turbines, we have a local airport, small airport, 1900 foot runway, that has let us fly there anytime we want to fly.

you can come join us, but we are just over 3 hours away, we are about 250 miles from Olean Ny ( use to race go karts at Chapel Hill Raceway, just outside of Olean

Thanks Mark for the invite.
If you could, please pm me with your contact info. It’s seems a little far to drive every weekend but I would like to check it out anyway next season.

Thanks again,

Steven T.

Got another field for you, a little over two hours. We have a pretty active group that flies out of Astabula County Airport in Northeast Ohio. Always looking for more company.

Jim,

Thanks for the invitation. Can you tell me if it’s a grass or paved runway?
Really looking forward in checking out a couple different locations next season.
Keep them coming!!!!!!

Thanks again,
