I thought Id do a smaller airport to help my frustration with Hollister. Didnt work, lol. My experience with this airport can be summed up in the following sentence, “they never told me it was on a mountain.” I havent been there in quite some time and so relied more on Google than my memory. I was just about done and realized that google street view went pretty deep into the airport to I clicked the last one and lo and behold a new hangar was built and one lil bulding I battleed with for hours was no longer needed, lol. Anyway I had to take some creative license because all the google maps pics to see behind didnt have the hangar at all. Its luck its there at all.
