Hey folks-
We'll be flying into Boulder, CO for a couple days to and from OSH. Any suggestions for airports/FBOs?
On the way out, we'll probably take a fuel break at Las Vegas NM (KLVS.)
Thanks
Marlys and John Ackerman

John, the Boulder airport itself if fine, but you need to be familiar
with their glider pattern, and powered patterns. There is self-serve
fuel. There really is only one FBO. There is an Enterprise office about
1 mi away if you need a car, but like most they are closed Sat. noon to
Mon. morning.
There may be a little cheaper fuel at Vance Brand, Longmont. I've never
been in there so can't comment.
Alomosa or Raton would be much cheaper fuel than LVS. When I go to
Boulder, I usually top off at St. Johns, then go direct.

Vance Brand does have cheaper fuel. The FBO fuel is fine and the other fuel is available back north of the hangars on a taxiway at the NE corner of the airport - its self serve only (a little competition). The FBO building isn't much but it has the bare basics.
Not familiar with the rental cars (my folks live there) but there used to be an Enterprise relatively close. Watch for parachute jumping activity - they have a VERY active jump club.
