plainsman Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I flew a short hop from FMCH to FQMP. FMCH is supposed to be a notoriously difficult airport because of the wind patterns, but I didn't turn the wind on? I am guessing FQMP does not get a lot of sight seeing traffic, not much in the way of welcome services.

plainsman Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 BTW, I just read a news story about this airport being taken in a civil war ongoing at this location.

plainsman Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 Thanks, maybe that is why there are no hotels or restaurants?

Rupert Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 BTW, I just read a news story about this airport being taken in a civil war ongoing at this location. Yes, I'd say a civil war would reduce your tourist numbers! :eek: As to winds, Texas has had some pretty interesting ones as well. I remember being RW grounded at the old Midland Airport for several days waiting for the winds to abate before continuing to El Paso. Michael Being an old chopper guy I usually fly low and slow.

adamb Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Bad choice of airports I would say. :D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plainsman Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 Yes, not a friendly welcome! I picked it for the proximity to FMCH, another of those places I will never visit. That was a much nicer airport! I didn't realize it had been taken over until after I had posted the shot!
