Questions? Open House to follow at the Terminal Building
Contacted 24 tenants with tail wheel aircraft based at TTA 30 Tail wheel aircraft owned by 24 tenants 147 - number of based aircraft at TTA per 2017 Form FAA 5010 Airport Master Record 20% - approximate number of tail wheel aircraft owned by 24 tenants Note: Was not able to contact all tail wheel tenants due to a self imposed time deadline actual number of signees most likely would have been > 25%
RS&H Master Plan Update Goals, WP 1, Section 1.2 The Master Plan Update s goals were developed based on an understanding of existing airport issues and stakeholder and group communications. I maintain that >20% represents a stakeholder position.
Triangle North Executive (LHZ), an airport 27 miles NE of Raleigh, that has a similar operational demand as TTA, has a grass landing area adjacent to their 05/23 asphalt runway. There is no reference to LHZ having a turf runway in the Airport Facility Directory, nor in the AirNavs. There is a reference to it on a link (Airport Safety Guidelines) on the http://franklincountync.us/services/airport website. The reference states, This airport does not have a control tower and only a single runway with a grass landing area alongside. It is suggested that Triangle North Executive be contacted to determine the rational they used in establishing this grass landing area.
The Pik N Pig In Carthage (BQ1) has a beautiful grass runway along side its asphalt runway. It is a privately owned airport open to the public. Mr. Gilliam has found a way around the compliance and liability issues. Pilots of retractable gear aircraft experiencing a landing gear issue would have the option of landing on grass or asphalt. A safety issue a fuel fed fire is less of an issue Private pilot students are taught soft field landings and take offs on asphalt or concrete runways. Soft field instruction/demonstration on a hard surface does not fully fulfill compliance with the intent of the Private Pilot Practical Test Standards specified in FAA-8081-14.
I suggest that we stop trying to find reasons for not going ahead with determining if a grass landing area is a possibility and try and figure out how to make it happen - as others have.
