I don't mind the occasional 5 bucks here and there that end up going towards keeping toilet paper in the pilot lounge or maintaining the loaner car, this is not that. Tower equipped, I'd avoid it anyway so not an issue anyway I guess. They probably don't allow grass landings either [-X


And if it's not listed in the current AFD that you gotta pay, I'm not paying as well!!

I'm gonna set up a toll booth, and take cash, credit cards, and carbon credits for my landing fees.

Good one! Is that a diesel powered wind sock? Most are wind powered but I don't see how that one is.

Not sure how current the info is on this web page. But, according to the AFD link, there appears to be a landing fee for all non-commercial aircraft over 12,500 lbs. But, does the first sentence on the quote state there is a landing fee for ALL aircraft no matter what size and weight? Might be kind of confusing. I take it that the landing fee is only for aircraft OVER 12,500 lbs.

Landing fee. Non-commercial landing fee for all acft over 12,500 lbs.

I guess they're able to really elaborate on their fees at length in their own PDF from the website, in a way they can't in the FAA remarks.

Re: User fees at North Bend, OR (OTH)

In RED at the top of the fee chart it states that if you buy at least $25 fuel from a FBO you will recieve up to $25 credit towards the fees. So for 5 gal fuel purchase you could stay 3 days in a single if that is correct. $10 for landing and $5 per overnight. That is not as bad as this thread was making it sound.
