A tentative deal has been reached pending environmental studies which I hear passed. :D He and his family plan to continue the operation of the Airport. :!:
This is great news if the deal goes thru.
He realizes that the main priority will be getting fuel services up and running so as not to lose tenants. Apparently a card swipe system is being looked at.
The above has been confirmed :smt040
The new owner was around yesterday and spoke with a couple of people.
He wants to keep the Airpark going and has no intention of closing.
Card swipe fuel is #1 priority

It's great to see something positive happening here.

The Ariss family starter the Guelph Airpark and ran a great operation for years .
Thank you to them for all they have done over the years. It was a pleasure being their tenant

The Airpark was started by Len Ariss and continued on after he passed by his kids
There are I think 2 girls and 2 boys ?
I only know Jane and Paul

Anyone know the contact number for the airport management? I am looking to get a plane out of YKF for the weekend to escape the closed airspace, hoping to park on the ramp at Guelph thursday and friday night, but the old number is out of service at the moment. Anyone know if there is space for itinerant aircraft tonight/tomorrow?

Dave
There is no contact # at present as the ownership of the Airpark is in transition.
However, there is space on the ramp first come first serve.
Also there is tie down space over on the grass south of the windsock
There have been many trasient aircraft coming in and parking for a day or so and there has been no issue with this.
The selling owner still controls things and she will have no problem with you being there for a day or so.
Come on over
