[CNF4] "Not the prettiest - but the cheapest" by Anonymous Flier

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Lindsay Airport, Canada:

Airport is slowly getting flixed up - but in some places - they only painted a turd.

Runway is nice - but backtrack for 13 can be a pain. Grass strip is not bad - and makes a nice shortcut to clear runway/get to the terminal on busy days. Wildlife can often be a problem on the runways.

What comes after greasy spoon?? ... because that is what the restaurant is. (but some of the food - and the hours - are good)

Cheapest fuel in Southern Ontario - and their new cardlock can get pretty busy on most days because if it.

Unicom/FBO folks are extremely helpful. The AME onsite at the local shop (which restores/repowers old See-Bees) is very good

Cute little airport, very well maintained and easy to find. Rather busy local traffic - lots of planes in the nearby Claremont training area and next to the lake Scugog - so keep listening (and advising) on the 122.9 before getting close to Lindsay. It is also a popular destination for the local "100$ hamburger" cross-countries, check out their restaurant next to the FBO! :-)

Local government is considering whether to keep Lindsay Airport open or sell off the land to developers. Here's the online petition to keep the airport open:

As you can see from the other comments, this is a popular airport with transient pilots.

I skipped the restaurant since it was a refuelling stop in the morning, but it sounds like I missed some good food. The FBO staff were very friendly as well.

[CNF4] "Butter tarts" by Flying_Celt

Butter tarts yes. Also - there are go carts next to the field. It's a back track runway - though so don't be too tight on the plane in front of you.

[CNF4] "Decent food" by Anonymous Flier

Linday has a small restaraunt on the airfield that has decent food and seems to attract a fair amount of locals from town. One of the better on airport restaraunts in southern Ontario
