I’m now considering flying in to Pak with the 8s. Does Lawrentucky have an airport yet?
They do, but don't expect anything like MHK, private or commercial. Oh wait, you can't even fly commercial out of Lawrence, nevermind. Still, the FBO isn't all that, the ramp can be filled up quickly whenever a big game is being held, and Uber sucks.
My ticket plans are to still grab some freebies that they're handing out right before kickoff, or grab a pair off of stub hub for $20.
If Lawrence were in the middle of nowhere, it would have a shitty airport, too. Doesn't really make sense with MCI nearby, though.
I realize you are a squawk just trying to take a swing at Manhattan's airport. However, since you support a lower tier school in this state, it goes without saying that your income and experience flying privately are lacking and thus, it probably shouldn't be expected for you to know the following:
1. Manhattan is the second nicest airport in the state, only behind Wichita due to the sheer resources the Wichita airport and surrounding area has. In all honesty, I hadn't flown to a nicer airport until I went to Fayetteville, AR. That FBO is just stupid clean and shiny.
2. There are 4 airports that are as close, or closer to MCI than Lawrence that I have flown into that provide far more than the Lawrentucky landing strip does. So proximity shouldn't be affecting anything and is a lame excuse.
3. MCI is not "nearby" lol.
