Parking Info:
The Thomson McDuffie Regional Airport has a very large ramp capable of handling a large number of aircraft. Uniformed linemen will marshal all aircraft to parking. Please state your intentions via the Unicom frequency 122.8 to Spirit Aviation when approaching the ramp (Quick Turn/ Overnight, etc.). Unless you are doing a quick turn, expect your aircraft to be relocated on the ramp after your passengers have deplaned.
Aircraft will be parked based on estimated date/time of departure. Expect to be relocated after fueling is completed. Fuel orders are strongly encouraged upon arrival instead of departure.
Light General Aviation Recips may be parked off pavement in designated parking areas. Pilots are encouraged to bring tie downs if possible.
