Van Sant Airport in Pennsylvania
« on: May 20, 2019, 07:22:58 PM »
I just learned there is a small airfield that is known as Van Sant Field. Is there any connection to Jim/ Glenn  Van Sant of speed fame?

Lyle,  I am guessing there is no connection and am not sure that Glen checks in here. I have been to that airport many times. Nice grass strip. Very laid back. We used to stop in on Sunday am motorcycle rides. I even took a glider lesson there. Fun.  In years past I spent a fair amount of time with the Van Sants.  Jim, Glen and, don't forget, 3rd gen James (very good pilot!)
