Comments

Flew into 6A4 today (6/28/2017).  Dave, the airport manager was super nice and extremely accomodating (crew car available).  I got a tour of the hangar which included lots of planes he was working on.  Then I played a local golf course and when I came back had a nice conversation with him and his lovely wife.  Terrain avoidance getting in and out was fun and kept me busy but it's really not a big deal.  Just, you know, don't hit stuff and you'll be fine.  I highly recommend you check out 6A4 if you're going to this area for any reason.  Thanks again Dave!

I visit quite frequently to 6A4 and it will soon be my base airport. The FBO, Dave Garris is the nicest FBO I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of aviation and continues to promote aviation of all kinds. That's what a real aviator is all about! Thanks Dave!
