Great airport. Class C airspace, ATC does an excellent job of mixing the GA

aircraft with the Commercial traffic. Mid Island Air will give you a loaner car

and direct you to some restaurants. VERY safe airport to fly into. I've been

flying out of ISP since 1982 and I fly all over the USA. I highly recommend

this airport and Mid Island FBO(also called New York Jet).

I based my airplane here for several years. Tower personnel are generally

excellent, very accommodating in spite of ever increasing carrier options

(Southwest). Mid Island Air is a great FBO - used them for fuel, service,

and tie down. They'll bend over backwards for you. I earning my private,

instrument, and commercial here. Felt a lot safer flying into/out of ISP

than HWV or FRG, especially during the summer months. Generally

FOK or HTO are avoided unless you have some specific reason to be

out east along the south shore of LI (hi Paris, Gywenth, John, ...)
