| During winter months there is no runway maintenance therefore chains and or skies maybe necessary. During exceptionally warm summer weather the ice will melt and the subsurface asphalt will actually turn into molten lava causing severe tire damage. Overnight aircraft parking meters are provided. U.S. Dollars only and parking cost $25.00 per hour. Armed guards are unreliable and often strip airplanes for blackmarket parts. | |||
