Wesport International???


While heading to a Thanksgiving gathering, we stopped by the Westport Airfield. There were some friendly people there, putting a plane in the hanger, who told us to take a look around, but not to wander onto the landing strip.....just in case someone decided to land at that time. We found the cache and then had a little snack on their picnic tables. While using the facilities, my hubby got a chuckle out of the sign posted above the toilet. I'd post a picture of that, but I think it would be too small to read, so I'll quote it here:

"NOTICE: Those pilots with shorter pitot tubes or reduced manifold pressure please taxi closer to the ramp. The next pilot may not have float equipment.

P.S. Please check that gear retracted and flaps up prior to departure."
