Runway: run' way. noun. The most precious
component of our flying field.
We have a proposal on the table to pave a portion of our packed dirt runway. This issue will come to a vote at the March meeting... so as a written voice of the club, I'm putting on my best ``objective'' hat and will review what I feel are the most relevant pros and cons of the proposal as it currently stands.
Here's the scoop. Russell Paving has provided the most tenable
proposal to pave our field thus far. The pavement will be 1.5'' deep
and will cover . The total cost will be $8290 plus
tax, coming to approximately $8500. Without additional revenue, the
assessment to members would be $150 apiece but could be much less if funds
were raised by other sources such as the County, the AMA, or raffles like at
the DM airshow.
