Comments
Friendly ATC and maintenance!
I completed a ferry flight from KPNS into Mobile Downtown (first time stopping and taxiing there), and the tower controller was very helpful in getting me to one of the maintenance shops. There are so many closed taxiways and NOTAMS there, but he redirected me to a better runway for my needs, and set me up for an easy journey to the shop. The Continental Services guys were quite helpful and took good care of me while I waited. Real nice folks there and I'd like to give my kudos to the tower guys!
