He thanked Million Air for getting the military in here. Plans are on the street for the hangar rehab for Nflight Technology's hangar office. They are due back on September 27h. The FAA has said we will have to develop an environmental wildlife plan, but we won't have to hire a consultant. Regarding the pavement rehab the streaks are fading, the paint looks good, and the french drains in front of the T-hangars are working. Folks were invited to attend the Arkansas Airport Operators Association's Annual Conference in North Little Rock. Registration needs to be completed soon. The Table Top Emergency Drill has been conducted, it is required. every two years. SkyVenture and AOPA sponsored a seminar in the terminal last night and had 80 attendees. On September 27'h Wings and Garman are sponsoring a seminar in the terminal. The Ozark Literacy Council has placed one of their fund-raiser pigs in the terminal. Thank you to the Airport Board and aviation community for their support. The FAA Flight Check has changed the radio frequency to 115.25, a change of 4 degrees and it is the same crew that checked it last time. B. James Nicholson, Financial Coordinator, Budget Report. Reviewed the aircraft operations and fuel charts, stating the last few months have been good. The local fuel prices have spiked, they are the highest in the local region, the FBO's fuel prices are comparable to prices in the larger cities in the southwest region. Pete Mastroianni responded that the price is directed to him from corporate, and that he has tried to explain to them. Regarding the airport budget there are a couple of insurance payments coming due and we will be replacing the roof at Wings for about $30,000. The office construction for the Nflight hangar will bring down the Airport Fund Balance. C. Louise Powers, Airport Secretary, T-Hangar Report. Five T-hangars are available to rent. D. Wayne Jones, McClelland Engineers, Construction Report. Phase II of the Pavement Rehab is looking more uniform. Some project savings were made in the painting.

The plans are out for bids. The pre-bid conference will be next Thursday. E. Warren Jones, Museum Executive Director. Last Friday, the Chill in the Hills charity had 300 attend their event at the museum. They want to make it an annual event at the museum. The B-29 will be here September 24'h, 25h, and 26" and will be available for tours and rides. The Stinson plane is going to be put in the "ride" program, it can be a successful program. Mark 1 Frankum thanked the museum for their support (chairs) for the AAOP seminar they sponsored in the terminal. Warren thanked Pete and the Million Air crew, for moving planes out for their event, and thanked Daryl Riddell for providing space in his hangar for the planes. ITEM #4: Old Business. A. Update: Pavement Rehab Project. Already discussed. B. Update: Hangar improvement project. Already discussed. ITEM #5: New Business. A. Public Hearing/Acrobatic Box at Drake Field Airport: Patrick Carter, Nflight Technology. Director Boudreaux explained Patrick Carter has requested to establish an acrobatic box over Drake Field. He explained he wanted our tenants and everyone in TV land to be aware of the request. Patrick Carter gave a power point presentation. He explained he has an acrobatic act and flies in air shows. He also manufactures and installs small technical cameras on planes, interior and exterior. His camera business started as part of flight instruction, and to have videos of his acrobatic act. He showed the cover of "Plane and Pilot ", where he and his aircraft had been on the cover. He explained that Fayetteville is his home and he needs a place to practice aerobatics in a safe place, rather than flying several hours to another airport with an aerobatical box. An application to the FAA will be made. Practice would be coordinated with the control tower and would have very little effect on local air traffic. The FAA waiver would be for one year. He would be flying about once a week, and said he wanted to be a good neighbor. Chairman Nickle asked that information be placed in the Airport's tenant newsletter, facebook and the City's website, and that it be placed on the next Airport Board Agenda for consideration. Comments from the Board and pilots: The operations and fuel sales will help the Airport, suggested notifying the press so they can have something in the paper about the proposal and that would save on call-in questions. ITEM #6: Other Business. A. Items from the Public. None. B. Items from the Airport Board. Mike Gibbs asked the status of the airport accounts. James said the account for Southern Hospitality Event Group has been sent to collections. Director Boudreaux said Southern Hospitality had filed bankruptcy. Director Boudreaux said he had been in contact with Roger Woolsey today and payments are on the way. They are behind in fuel flowage fees and some invoices, they cut one check today, one next week and be caught up in two weeks. They apologized for their Houston corporate accounting office. He said Million Air had been on the airport about ten years and three times they have gone into arrears for about three months. Terry Gulley said he had talked to the City Attorney and wanted a letter from the City Attorney to Roger Woolsey. Rick Bailey commented on a recent incident on the airfield, and reminded all pilots to follow the tower's instructions, and if they are not clear, to ask for clarification, that tenants/pilots needed to listen to the tower. Meeting Adjourned at 3:47 p.m. Mike Gibbs, Secretary Date 2 THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS AVIATTayrev;1i ayette ON DMSION 4500 5 School Ave, Ste F Fayetteville, AR 72701 S P (479) 718-7642 QUARTERLY REPORT 3rd QUARTER 2012 FAYETTEVILLE EXECUTIVE AIRPORT, DRAKE FIELD October 4, 2012 • AIRPORT ACTIVITY: At the end of the third quarter, airport activity is up in all areas. Operations are up by 18% and fuel sales are up by 8% year over year. Military consumption is averaging about 20% of all jet fuel sales so Million Air's efforts to recruit military training flights are paying off. Having the U of A football team fly into and out of Drake has made a significant difference as well. This has been a 10 year effort to convince the U of A to ask charter companies to use Drake. They are flying the Boeing 757 for the flights. One flight for an away game transports 183 passengers and consumes approximately 2500 gallons of fuel. The charter company has required the airport to acquire a belt loader for the aircraft so we are trying to find one for a reasonable price. • ARKANSAS AERONAUTICS COMMISSION HANGAR REHAB PROJECT GRANT FOR SOUTH DELTA AVIATION: South Delta Aviation has moved into the building and is conducting business at the Airport. Mr. Riddell has hired mechanics and pilots and is spending most of his time in Fayetteville. He has expressed satisfaction with the remodeling project which has now been closed out with the State Aeronautics Department. • ARKANSAS AERONAUTICS COMMISSION GRANT FOR NFLIGHT TECHNOLOGY HANGAR MODIFICATIONS: After meeting with Director John Knight we issued a Task Order to McClelland Consulting Engineers to design the project for an office and production space for NFlight Technology in the hangar on the South Apron. Invitation for bids was issued with bids for the work due October 11 , 2012. Bids will be good for 60 days so the plan is to send our application to the State for grant funding consideration by the Aeronautics Commission at their November 14`h meeting. If approved we will be able to issue a Notice to Proceed to the successful bidder in November. We will present the project to the City Council November 8 to request the project with approval of the Aeronautics Commission. • NFLIGHT TECHNOLOGY LLC: NFlight has taken possession of the corporate hangar on the South Apron and temporary space in the Terminal once occupied by the restaurant. They have set up shop in the Terminal until we are able to receive a grant from the State Aeronautics Commission to modify the Hangar. They have agreed to allow the motor home tenants to remain in the hangar until the modifications are made. • FAA AIP PAVEMENT REHABILITATION GRANT PROJECT: Project is physically complete. We are preparing the grant close out with the FAA and will apply for the Aeronautics Commission match in November. • FAA WILDLIFE HAZARD ASSESSMENT: The FAA had some questions that we forwarded to the contractor, Loomacres, for resolution. We anticipate that the FAA will require a Wildlife Hazard Management Plan so we are working on the plan now. It will be part of the Airport Certification Manual. • AIRPORT EMERGENCY PLAN (AEP) TABLE TOP DRILL: The Drill was well attended by Police, Fire, EMS and Dispatch. Washington County Emergency Management updated all on what's Telecommunications Device for the Deaf TDD (479) 521-1316 113 West Mountain - Fayetteville, AR72701 THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS going on in the County and the new 911 system that reports your location and the new emergency notification system Code Red. You can sign up for Code Red by logging into the County Web site, www.co.washington.ar.us. Mark Mellinger briefed the group on the AAOA Airport Disaster Communications Network. • OZARK LITERACY COUNCIL: There is a Pig in the Terminal. Josh Mahony, Airport Board Member has spearheaded Airport Community support of the Ozark Literacy Council "PIGShibition" fund raiser. The Pig, tail number N1PIG is here to remind us of the need for support to eliminate illiteracy in our community. Contact Josh if you wish to be a part of this initiative. • VOR CHECKPOINT DECERTIFIED: FAA Check Flight visited the airport last month and reported that the VOR Check Point was incorrect and that the frequency for DAK had changed to 115.25. We have removed the sign and expect FAA Check Flight to return to give us an updated radial for our Check Point. It is interesting that the same FAA Check Aircraft gave us the radial that was printed for our Check Point. We will see what change there is when they return. Hopefully soon. • T HANGARS FOR RENT: There are two T hangars available. • DRAKE FIELD ON FACEBOOK: Check us out and click "Like" at hiip://www.facebook.com/DrakeFieldAi[port. • AAOA UPDATE: The annual conference was a big success. Ed Agnew and Don Hams from the Arkansas/Oklahoma ADO of the FAA were in attendance and presented a large portion of the program addressing Grants, Assurances and many other topics of interest. State Category 1 through 4 airports met with Ed and the Category 5 airports and consultants met with Don. We got a lot of favorable comments on the new format. • ARKANSAS AIR AND MILITARY MUSEUM: The visit of the B-29 FIFI was a great success. The Museum cleared more than $4,000.00. Planning is underway for the Air Race Classic for next year. The finish line will be at Drake Field and we expect at lease 20 competitor aircraft and additional support folks flying to the Airport for the event. The Airport has several check list support items we must complete before the event. One is to install tie downs for as many as 70 aircraft that could come in to support the Race. We have asked MCE to help us design cable tie downs for the entire west apron. Our maintenance team will begin installation early next Spring. The annual Aviator Ball will be held October 20 at the Museum White Hangar and features the Big Band from Bella Vista. I hope that you all will attend in support of the Museum. Call the Museum for reservations at 521 -4947. Respectfully Submitted, Ray M.
