Last 8 years have been very unstable for this company. Too many new owners, poorly maintained aircraft and instructors that are sub-par. Plus, this airport is one of the worst to get into and around, not to mention the automotive traffic blocking taxiways. This company is cursed after its departure from Denton.

Check out the Blue Hanger Cafe...and one of the few Tetrahedron "wind socks" I've ever seen. Nice place.
