Common Complaints

No Commercial Airline Service: The most significant "complaint" for a typical traveler is the absence of scheduled commercial flights, as the facility is not a public commercial airport.
Limited Public-Facing Information: Details regarding typical traveler concerns such as extensive public parking options, diverse ground transportation, or varied dining/retail beyond FBO offerings are not readily available, reflecting its primary function.
Security for Large Public Events: While not a routine "traveler" complaint, a past airshow experienced significant queues at security entry points due to the large crowd.
