Hi Everyone,
I'd like to make a correction to Bill Sullivan's post: the Palmer ultralight airstrip is not on the old PMX airport but is over the fence in the next field to the south. Do not land at PMX: it is closed, is unsafe, has been subdivided into house lots, and you would receive a very hostile welcome there. Our 900' grass strip is some 100 yards south of the end of the old PMX paved runway and is well marked with large white cones every 100' on both sides.

To those list members who inquired about traveling to PMX in
Palmer, Mass., I
have been in touch with Ed Harvey, a member of the Silver Wings
Ultralight Club
based at the now closed PMX airport. The club rents the old airport,
and Ed
tells me they always welcome visitors. However, the airport only has
people around
when a member happens to be present. The gate is locked when no one
is there.
Ed is retired, and goes in there to mow the grass. The paved runway
is said
to be unusable, and the club uses a 900' grass strip adjacent to the
runway.
They say it is always open to touch and goes, etc., but if anything
is needed
a club member should be there to arrange ground transport, gas, etc.
Ed can
be reached by e-mail at the following address: edharvey1(at)juno.com (edharvey1(at)juno.com)
Thanks, guys, for the help and support. Hopefully we will have
our Kold in
about three weeks.
Bill Sullivan
