El Monte Airport working on a Taxiway?
It seems like El Monte Airport is working on a the taxiway right now. The flight school called Universal Air Academy had many airplanes coming in and out of row 21. I saw N38700 flying too. I didn't fly it so I don't know how it performs but the paint job was still in fairly good condition. Yeah, they do have a "bunch" of Cessnas.
