Jeff,
 
Oh Great, you are telling the State Representative of the Libertarian Party about Supply and Demand...:)
 
This was bait and switch "Fraud" plain and simple!
 
The $200 tow was mentioned afterward, not before.  The $150 2 second air inflation of a tire!  The call a week before extolling the five dollar tie down price, failing to mention the $6.25 gas, and $500 shop entrance fee, lack of Crew Car, no shuttle, no cabs, $271 car rental, and no tie downs!  And "Demand"?  Maintenance had nothing to do the entire time we were there...
 
Also, the 360 has a fairly standard tow clip.
 
I will post on EAA and AOPA and AIRNAV as well.
 
Regards,
 
Stu

Buyer Beware!  Atlantic Aviation's FBO at KSDF is the worst case of gouging I have seen in 30 years of flying! 
 
Stu,
 
You sound a little put out by Atlantic Aviation's pricing policy. Have you ever been to the Super Bowl or the World Series? Have you purchased food at DisneyWorld (or at AirVenture for that matter). Supply -- demand.
 
btw-- there is no "correct adapter" for tugs for our nose gear--that's what is great about experimental-- if you need special ground support equipment, better bring it yourself.
