What is the length/width of the runway?
I ask only because this will determine what size jets can fly in and out. |

Robert, Are you talking about Ventress, as on False River? Or thinking of Venice as in near the Gulf of Mexico.

Approx 10-11 years ago one of the local clubs put on a giant scale fly-in with vendors attending, was quite a show, had tons of spectators and flyers from all around, this is what I'd like to do for EDF's. I don't think the airport will charge anything for the use of the runway, will just to have to co-ordinate it with the local EAA chapter as they use it once a month for a breakfast fly-in. |
