Shenandoah IA overnight stop

[rvator51]

A couple of us Rvers are thinking of stopping at KSDA for the cheaper fuel and possibly to spend the night there on the way to Oshkosh (weather permitting) . Any comments on using KSDA as an overnight stop? Shows courtesy cars available and several motels and restaurants close by. Then a short 2 hr flight to KOSH the next morning.

I cannot comment on KSDA, but 100 miles further along the track to Oshkosh I have used KIKV a few times. Good support, nearby hotels and several restaurants. Gas is certainly higher though.

I am hangared at the airport to the North 17 NM Red Oak KRDK with a RV9A we have a community hangar for around $25 a night or ramp parking for free. Good fuel prices, there are a couple of hotels and a crew car. Past years we always get some traffic and I look forward to meeting anyone if I know.

We stopped in Red Oak on the way back from OSH last year and thought it was a nice facility.

How's the grass strip at KRDK for RV's? I have a 7 and I want to add grass strips into my logbook.

Do you know about hangar availability at KRDK? Moving back there (Glenwood) and looking for a hangar, I haven't been able to get a hold of anyone at KRDK. Talked to a guy at Shenandoah, and he was looking into getting one for me, but I haven't heard back.

Maybe adding a grass strip to your log book is a good thing but is it wise to be trying something new on your way to greatest airshow on earth with all the pressure that that entails, just asking.
