I used to fly my plane from Philadelphia to Cherry Ridge Airport every weekend. The planes that operated in the area were not representive of the official local economy, it's people, or it's appeal. There were a lot of really run-out light twins there. Commanders, Commanche's, 310's. The kind of planes one could afford to lose.
I also knew not to ask many questions. I kept a spare vehicle there for the ride to and from our home and the airport. It was about a 15 minute drive.
