toto Posted July 11, 2021 Report Posted July 11, 2021 Way cool. Anyone know whether it’s possible to visit the NM spaceport by Mooney?

Rick Junkin Posted July 11, 2021 Report Posted July 11, 2021 Outstanding accomplishment! It's a novelty right now, but as the commentators said this opens the door to future innovation for commercial space travel. As for landing at the Spaceport, I'm a little more optimistic. Interesting that the background photo for the Space Port "Events" page looks like an Ercoupe fly-in. And the FAQ says PPR (prior permission required) which doesn't necessarily mean "no", you just have to have a good reason, from the airport authority's perspective, to land there. Attending a scheduled tour may be a good enough reason. Since it's owned by the state of New Mexico access may be easier than you think. Definitely worth a phone call! Cheers, Rick
