Snyder/AirportDear Sirs:
My name is Robert Snyder, I own and operate an aviation company called
Mission Mountain Flying Services LLC. I feel compelled to write this
letter concerning the controversy surrounding the Kalispell City
Airport.
As a contractor to the Forest Service I have many job related flights
into the city airport. During the summer my contract sometimes requires
me to work out of kalispell for as many as three weeks. With Motels and
restaurants and the great Rosauers so close to the city air port it is
the hands down place to go for small operators. many of my friends that
also have aviation work in kalispell use city because it is less of a
hassle than Glacier International, plus the fuel is cheaper at city.
Concerning the noise at city we if we are being unnecessarily loud.
we are quickly reminded that there are things we should be thinking
about when operating around cities such as taking off away from town and
keeping our planes as quite as possible.
I just thought I needed to let you know my feelings on this
subject. I think loosing the city airport would be a great loss for the
city and for many operators like myself
