Richard,
I live about 2 miles from T27. I practice landings there all the time. It's a great little airport to take a break in. It's just outside the ELP class C airspace and not congested. Send me a pm or an email to
georgeb@whc.net and I'll get you my number. I'll get you a ride or show you around if you give me more specifics on times and such. Glad to lend a hand.
George
