Welcome To Our Staff, Commercial Pilot, Ignacio "Iggy" Peralta, who is now available for rides and photo flights, while working for his CFI & freeing up some of our instructors.

JEPPESEN Guided Flight Discovery

We have just received and put into stock the latest revised videos for those students enrolled in the Private Pilot Course. As per Jeppesen's directive, we have destroyed the previous set and the old Cessna Pilot Center videos, as they are obsolete. By now students with the CPC program should all be near completion.

When Larry Ottenberg (Tiger, N1966L) invited his girlfriend for a plane ride to Long Island. Little did she know he had made arrangements to meet a tow plane and propose to her. The master plan was to meet at the Statue of Liberty at 11:00AM.

When the tow plane wasn't there, Larry circled the Statue, until he saw the banner. When he asked his girlfriend what it said, she replied that she couldn't see. So in true pilot tradition, Ottenberg flew closer to the tow plane which carried a banner, "DEBORAH GOLDSTEIN WILL YOU MARRY ME?" After a few, "Oh my Gods" she accepted and he gave her a ring. This was witnessed by the families who watched from Liberty Island. An August wedding is planned.

Happy 14th Anniversary To US!

To some of you who don't know our history, before coming to Princeton Airport we were at Kupper Airport for 20 years. As we approached the end of our lease, things were hopping at Kupper, however we were unable to renew the lease or purchase the airport. (bet someone is kicking himself now.)

Well, leave it to Ken to find a way out - buy Princeton Airport which had been on the market for four years. Well we did, and we're glad we did. The rest is history, which can be read on our website.

On March 29th about midday, we had the closing. It was a very cold, wet, gloomy day and our undertaking was awesome at the time. But because of so many of you, we have been able to make 39N a very special place to call "home base of operations".

Thank you,

Naomi, Dick & Ken Nierenberg

 PS Stayed tuned. The next few years should be even more exciting.

A HEARTY WELCOME TO

The many new faces who have joined our airport family as new students. This has been a wonderful years for student starts. To the old timers, whether recently licensed or licensed back when Orville and Wilbur were flying, introduce yourselves to those hardy souls carrying the heavy "black bags" and looking a bit bewildered. You, too, were a student once.
