Let’s open up a big, fat can of worms. We are in the process of rewriting our hangar storage agreements. The current leases were basically dictated by tenants about 15 years ago and there have been many abuses going on ever since. The biggest problems are non-aviation storage (cars, motorcycles, etc), unapproved and shoddily built modifications (lofts), and illegal sublets. We have put together a pretty good document that addresses all these things but I...

Lamps

Out of curiosity, is anyone else have difficulty getting quartz halogen lamps. I've been waiting over a month for some backordered PAPI lamps. The supplier tells me lack of filliment production in China is the cause and I can expect more backorder issues for other lamps in future. Anybody else hearing this?

Thank you again for supporting My Airport Operations. We are having our 1st year anniversary in August, I would love to have 200 members. Please share the love and invite a friend. The more member we have the stronger the site will be. Also, if you would like to see any changes please let me know.

Thank you Glen

We have used old chain link fencing put in at 45 degree on the outside and attached to the existing fence and has worked well for badgers and coyotes.

Thanks for the kind words; I have always believed in asking for help or lending a hand. AAAE does lots of good work but you are right the people that are the backbone of the airport needed a place to communicate. To ask help or questions from other more experience airports or to just brag and show off something you are proud of at your airport. Please feel free to use the site and spread the word, I also ask for everyone to give me suggestion on making it better.

Thanks Glen

It's great to have a site like this. I have long seen a need for an information exchange for Ops folks. AAAE has this kind of thing for management issues, it's good to see a site dedicated to the nuts and bolts stuff we do. I will pass this URL to others I know in Airport Operations, I hope to see it grow and be a valuable resource.

Welcome,

My Airport Operations is a new site to help airport operators and maintainers with compliance and maintenance issues. I wanted a place where we can share ideas, training, concerns, problems, (questions and answers) and boast about our airports. This site is still growing and I welcome all input.

My email address is gbarentine@myairportoperations.com please feel free to contact me for anything.

Thanks
