Hi All,
I was searching the web this morning and found this new (new to me) web site.

http://www.americanaircampers.net

Its focus is on Air Camping. They have a Google map with listings of Airports that have camping facilities. But they want $50.00 to be a member. I'm not sure what you really get for your $50. Dose anyone have any experience with them and is it really worth the money?

I know of a few free websites that probably give you more info. (BCP and shortfielder )

In all honesty though, looks like a cool site and anything to promote my favorite hobby is a plus.

I checked out their booth at Osh Kosh. Good effort but I don't think there's enough value added to justify the subscription cost. As MM points out, you can get basically the same information from shortfield.com for free. I applaud the efforts of the aircamping folks but I'll be surprised if they're around for long.

I third the statements of MM and Vick. When a collaborative data source is free for use and contribution of knowledge by the community, it flourishes. A membership fee is probably the best way to limit your contributor base, which is why you will never see one here, regardless what fancy features we have planned.

That's not to get down on the AACA, because many people enjoy flying and camping and not necessarily backcountry-oriented flying stuff. Best of luck to them.

Zane,
It's a good time ,to again, thank you for what you do. I check the site every day!
