Temp Home Base Pensacola Area

[Jimd]

Hi All,

I am looking for info on a temp home for my RV6 while in the Pensacola area. I am helping my father-in-law get comfortable with a new (to him) boat. I may be in the area for a week or maybe 3 or 4. Then, we will be slowly heading south with the boat and airplane, toward the Tampa area.

Is there a ga friendly fbo in the area? The boat will start out at the Pensacola Shipyard marina but could be moved to a locatiion that would be closer to an airport.

If there is someone in the panhandle with both boat and airplane knowledge I would love to talk with you.

I am going to try and leave Iowa Thursday (11/13/08). While I am in the area I will also be available for transition training in my 6.

Jim,
Here is a link to Ferguson Airport. It's the closest field to downtown Pensacola. Not sure what they may have for hangar space available. I'm at a small airfield about 6 miles west across the AL border called Shields (AL55), but live on the East side of Pensacola in Gulf Breeze. Give a call when you get down. My home phone is 850 934-9122.
