Islander, You are awesome. How can I be down????

Homero,
I work on the airport so I have some idea.
The landing fees are based on the weight of the aircraft. Tha parking fees are based on whether you park in a privately controlled area or a port authoriyt (government ) controlled area. AV gas prices vary widely depending on island and the supplier. On the low end on St. Croix, it is close to $2.00/gallon.

Note: Aircraft parking in St. Thomas is extremely limited, especially during winter months. This year, private aircraft landing in St. Thomas had to come to St. Croix for long term parking. The distance is just 45 miles - you probably already know that.

If you need the telephone number for fuelers and parking, let me know and I will forward to you.

Lee,
Thank you for your kindness. I am in the process of revalidating my German private pilot license and after completing the instrument certification, I am planing of purchase a small single engine airplane, in case I move tho the USVI, and looks like STX would be the place to keep it.

I will contact you when the time is right.
Have a good week end.
Homero
