Those are the Training Facilities and previously were open access (although rare to have visitors) from the DART. The fence was installed because of frequent trespassers.

Literally a couple hundred feet to the front gate, my man! A similar walk from say..Ft Greene to the nearest subway? You should come visit and see for yourself. We'd be happy to host you.

At most gates, the current terminal is too close to the taxiway for an aircraft longer than a 737-700

And the new Burbank terminal will allow newer, quieter 737s later this year!

You're a true Renaissance Man. What trade or occupation will you demonstrate mastery of next?

NBA and NHL milk the post season for soooo long, why not learn some business lessons there?

Nothing better than a hot, freshly made, cider doughnut from Cold Hollow after a hard day of skiing. Yum!

The best cider doughnuts come from the Cold Hollow Cider Mill in Smugglers Notch, VT. The quality of the ones from Massachusetts are equidistant to those, as Mass. is to NY!

We had an unflattering name for those two gates. But, two more gates is two more than we would have had otherwise!

Customers were just as thrilled as the one from HNL, but less tanned.

The Terminal is a newsworthy event in San Diego. If you've flown into the old Terminal 1, you know why!

Flying New Mexico One on my way from SBA to SAN via LAS. Fitting because I connected over ABQ yesterday and had a delicious Green Chile Breakfast Burrito!
