Nice George! My mechanic was based there for years. Will try to make it out.

As George points out, it is VFR. There is no Smoketown instrument approaches but ingenious pilots have figured out the approaches to runway 31 at KLNS will take you right over the airport. Not sure how I knew that.

Also, S37 runway is sloped a little (uphill on 28) and is a bit shorter than some of you have flown.

Here's a video of me landing at S37 (visiting the paint shop).  Note the big power adjustment on final for 28 as I thought there was a telephone wire as an obstruction.   There isn't as the wire runs to the ground.  Hopefully there won't be a lawnmower at this time of year.   

Runways a bit shorter than your average in NE but as you can see there's plenty of space for a Mooney.... And I'm no short field yoda.  

Have fun

Beautiful little one in back,. Sweet

it was a great fly in...One Mooney in attendance, which was OK since all the parking was on the grass.
