Got my PPL last summer and spent the past few months exploring local airports.
I live in the northwest and there are lots of small towns within an hour or two flying with an airport on them. Or even airports in the middle of nowhere with nothing around.
One thing I’m unclear about is protocol for parking overnight. Can I just park my plane overnight somewhere and walk into town to a hotel without telling anyone? Can I camp near the field, or just under my wing? I think I have seen in the A/FD a couple times where it said camping was okay.
Just one of those million little thing that isn’t covered in training. During your x-country, you land, get gas, and come home. You don’t really park overnight.
Thanks for all you do.
