Cincinnati Blue Ash

A recent trip to Cincinnati saw N26958 landing at Blue Ash Airport (KISZ). It is unfortunate that such a lovely little airport will soon be closed.

Blue Ash has a single runway 6/24 that is 3,499 feet long. It is surrounded by expensive homes now that were advised at the time of sale of an avigation easement and somehow managed to convince the city not to invest any more money in it. Cincinnati sold part of the airport to the city of Blue Ash and they intend to make their portion a park. I wonder if the park will be named after the mayor's wife like the absolute moron the former Mayor Daley of Chicago did with Meigs Field? Using the word "class" in the same sentence with that man would be butchering the English language.

While I hate to see the loss of this airport I am thankful for being able to land there before its closure.
