An Airpark on the Maine Coast?
Maine is too cold for year-round flying, right? Not so; with recent warming
trends over the last few years, Maine winters have been
milder thus providing spectacular flying weather, even in January. While we still
have our fair share of snow and rain, all four seasons are nothing short of
paradise! Maine has more forests, more lakes, and a longer coastline with fewer
people than any destination its size in the eastern United States. Maine has
emerged as the vacation and retirement choice for thousands of outdoor
enthusiasts.
For the private pilot, Maine is only a
few hours from major population areas
ideal for weekend getaways. Until now, the only residential airparks in Maine
have been in heavily developed York County. As founders we believe there is a
demand for small, intimate vacation / retirement airparks on the Maine Coast and
in lake, mountain, and farming communities. We are a family group with
backgrounds in aviation, business, education, real estate and construction. Our
group is
focused on the purchase of land and development of small residential airparks in
rural Maine.
The first residential airpark would be a town not too many miles from Acadia
National Park. This coastal location has easy air access to the urban
areas of New England including Boston and New York. In addition, the access to
Maine’s lakes, North Woods, and ski areas is even more aesthetically appealing.
The Maine location is a short drive or flight to the conveniences of
towns such as Ellsworth, Belfast, Camden, or Bangor. Despite all this access, the
airpark would be set in a quiet coastal Maine town with a beautiful harbor for
sailing and boating, thus creating a rural ambiance.
