Just to the northwest one can fly over the Rio Grande River as it snakes it's way south through a beautiful canyon. There is a small resticted area south of Los Alamos so watch your charts. Great views.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=1955 Fri, 27 Jun 2008 15:45:41 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=1955 <p>Bode also has airplane rentals and a flight school. Weather 119.025 CATF 122.8. Double Eagle can be busy on the weekends. In the summer one should expect high density altitude and possible afternoon thunderstorms.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=974 Mon, 07 Jan 2008 12:50:33 -0500 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=974 <p>If you are ever crossing overhead, I have had pretty good experiences with the gas prices here!</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=682 Thu, 30 Aug 2007 15:20:13 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=682 <p>This is still the name listed by the FAA. Does anyone have a source showing the new name? If so, I'll be happy to change it.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=681 Thu, 30 Aug 2007 13:25:00 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=681 <p>This is actually the church of Scientology's airport, the runway has been lengthened since this image was taken, it is now 10,000+ ft to accommodate large aircraft like John Travolta's B707</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=400 Thu, 26 Jul 2007 22:06:37 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=400 <p>Diverted here due to weather in 2004. Friendly place. It is a long drive into town, they have a courtesy car and they let us keep it overnight. If you like trains, it is a great place, the freight trains pass through town every five minutes all night long. Several large stores specialize in cowboy/horse/western gear. You can buy anything here for your horse, or get some good deals on cowboy boots. We had a lot of fun here, and bought some really neat (tacky) stuff too. Fuel was relatively inexpensive.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=392 Wed, 25 Jul 2007 20:00:34 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=392 <p>07/07': Bode Aviation will usually loan a nice car for a few hours or they can arrange rental. Resaurant only fair. Going to change to Class D soon.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=391 Wed, 25 Jul 2007 19:56:48 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=391 <p>Busy but usually accommodating to GA. With runways 03/21, 08/26, 12/30 & 17/35 and all 150 feet wide this could make for a good alternate due to high winds. Cutter & Seven Bar on the field.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=312 Mon, 23 Jul 2007 22:13:44 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=312 <p>Bring your high-limit credit cards if you have to stop here.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=180 Sat, 21 Jul 2007 22:33:51 -0400 http://www.ourairports.com/comments.html?comment=180 <p>I landed here when my spouse demanded a pit stop enroute Pheonix. Don't expect that it will cool off in the evening - it never cools off here. Elevation 4,300 ft, but density altitude in the afternoons with temperatures 120F - over 9,000 ft. We used about 4,500 ft of runway to take off, just two people in a Baron B-55.</p>
