Of course! Eaton posi with the 800lb springs

Very cool. Howard sees any event as money, so hopefully he will like this!

The plattsburgh county air base was moved from rt 3 to the old Air force base…the vacant old air port is covered in snow…some guy tried to pitch a nascar track there but no go on the funds. This place is privately owned and vacant. I am working contact info on him…FYI the Airborne speed way has confirmed atleast two drift races up there this year. Will get more info asap

Checked airborne’s schedule; didn’t see anything. I called them too, the guy who answered said he didn’t know anything about it. But I don’t think he knew that much about the schedule in general.

I did find these. [http://www.airborneparkspeedway.com/Photo09-07-08%20Drifting.html](http://www.airborneparkspeedway.com/Photo09-07-08%20Drifting.html)  
But that’s a demo. not an event. Guys came down from Montreal.

If you can get more info on their events let us know.

Plattsburg International is the old SAC. Commercial service commenced sometime in 06-07(based close officially in '95). Before that CCA was the main airport in/out of PB. I’ve flown into both airports in the Cessnas/Katanas.

CCA might be an option as it’s no longer a commercial airport, just local flights similar to SCH(however uncontrolled), minus the C-130 flights 🙂
