Yes, the airport gave a very clear reason. First of all, the University,
which owns the airport, wants to shut the airport down (to build another
campus). This is the chancellors pet project. AOPA worked very hard with
the NC state legislature to keep the airport open for two more years. The
airport really doesn't want anyone there anymore. They kicked the flying
club out about two years ago (they cited safety reasons after two crashes in
a two year period). They also don't give any leases other than month to
month right now. The airport manager cited "safety concerns" as why the
university won't allow experimentals to have monthly leases (but we can land
there and pay overnight rates... for months - explain that).

the
