I and the Essex Skypark pilots could really use your help in saving our beloved Skypark from closure.
The local pilot association and the Essex community association are fighting Baltimore County's efforts to close the Skypark. They want to use the Skypark's 40 acres -- located in a sea of trees -- to plant more trees to offset development in the rest of the county. All of you who fly the East Coast know there is no shortage of trees!
We are trying to gin up as much MD voter support as we can. You can help by:
1) reading the AOPA article
2) Signing the petition
3) Ask your fellow aviators and RV friends to sign the petition too.
4) Become a friend of "Friends of Essex Skypark" on Facebook

The last six months of my five year RV-7 project was at the Skypark and I have enjoyed flying the RV from this friendly little airport the last three years. Help us prevent yet another GA airport being lost. Thanks, Bill
