607 569-2160
Frequency 123.45
Amphibs: Taxi up the ramp just west of the docks. If crowded(specifically Saturday), taxi straight in and shut down. Plenty of help is available to push airplanes around.
Straight Floatplanes: Be careful at the docks. If you pull in nose first there is no facing on the boardwalk, the floats can go under the boardwalk. If the wind is out of the north, making the docks unusable, there is a good beach nearby, at a park on the southeastern shore.
Landplanes: there is a small grass strip, Kolo Field, uncharted, about 1 mile south of town just east of Route 54. Try on 123.45 to get a ride, or call the museum. Penn Yan, KPEO is 20 miles north, with full services.
