The View from AirNav

The Runway Cafe in Blairstown, NJ is a great destination for food or a fun stop on the way south. The food here is exceptional and you can't beat the service. If you are lucky, Jennie Novack will be your waitress. She makes breakfast a fun experience! The Cafe is open 7 days a week 7am-4:30 pm and menus are available at the club. The airport has a dedicated website and fuel is currently $3.96 a gallon.

Fly in to Cherry Ridge, Honesdale, PA (N30), 88nm

Joe and Karen Brand on approach to landing (north) at Cherry Ridge (N30) in a Skyhawk Taxiing south after landing into ramp with restaurant in view "Airport Cafe" right on the field: enjoy breakfast!

KITH (Ithaca, NY)The Second Landing. This restaurant is in the airline terminal so is a bit of a walk from the tiedowns. Great grilled burgers though and wi-fi at the tables.

27.7 nautical miles W; KPEO (Penn Yan, NY) Sarasin's On the Lake (Restaurant)

51.7 nautical miles N; KFZY (Oswego County Airport, Fulton, NY) Melonys Landing Restaurant. This restaurant is on the field and has fairly regular hours.

79.5 nautical miles SE; N30 (Honesdale, PA--Cherry Ridge Airport) Airport Cafe

115.6 nautical miles WNW; KIAG (Niagra Falls, NY) After touring the falls (check the NOTAM) stop in the FBO--Diner is right out the back door!

Four Planes and 13 Pilots; We had a Wonderful Lunch at Orange County (KMGJ)!

We had a great day to fly to Orange County Airport. The morning fog burned off on schedule and we launched four very different aircraft for a lunch at Rick's Runway Cafe. What a classy arrival with an Aerostar, SR-22, Skyhawk and Flight Design CT-LSA! Thanks to everyone that came along. This is an excellent fly-out food destination, we posted a few menus up at the club. In the time we were there probably 20 aircraft flew in; several Barons, SR-22s, and Cherokee sixes. Personal favorite: a beautiful Cessna 337 "Skymaster."

115.8 nautical miles ESE: N45 (Kobelt Airport, Wallkill, NY) Nu-CAVU Restaurant. (First it was the CAVU then the Casual Palate for a year) This is right on the airport! Restaraunt is open Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Sunday from 11:30 am - 12:00pm. Dinner served until 9:00pm. Open Friday and Saturday from 11:30am - 2:00am. Dinner served until 10:00pm. Late Night Bar menu.

129.9 nautical miles ESE; 44N (Sky Acres Airport, Millbrook, NY--Just NE of Poughkeepsie) Home of the Perfect Landing Cafe

134.5 nautical miles SW; KDUJ (Du Bois-Jefferson County Airport) "Flight Deck" Restaurant right on the field.

195.1 nautical miles ENE; 2B3 (Parlin Airport, Newport, NH) A little farther afield is Parlin Airport in New Hampshire. The Lil' Red Baron Restaurant (Mexican) on the field is ok but a 2 mile walk along the river gets you to town and the excellent Salt Hill Pub. <website> Two restaurants: "Lil' Red Baron Restaurant" (Mexican cuisine) Salt Hill Pub (Irish Pub food) This airport also has courtesy bicycles you can use: <here>
