  1. Thanks for the input.. quote: 1. The cache can't be hidden so that people would intentionally or accidently cross the flight line. Their presence would be illegal. Since all airports, public and private, are regulated by the Federal Government, I'm not sure if your local controlling authority actually has the power to authorize such an activity. Naturally some common sense applies to all Geocaching. An AeroCache (at a "public" airport) would need to be placed on the "non-security" side of the facility so that all Geocachers would have easy access - And, probably a difficulty level 1 or 2 (ie. Lockbox, mailbox, etc.) with clues for the lock or other creative idea. Also, Only airports receiving Federal/State funding are (somewhat) controlled and become "public" by nature. The airport grounds/access are maintained locally. Private airports (such as ours) are not controlled - except by the landowner. (However, I wouldn't necessarily advocate placing a cache at a busy tower controlled airport (B,C,D). Most FBO and Airport managers/authorities I have spoken with about this new concept welcome the idea, and are "bugging" me to place a cache at their facility to increase GA traffic. Lets Fly..

  2. A E R O C A C H I N G ---------------------- A new concept for the adventure sport of Geocaching... When your "Travel Bug" Absolutely, Positively has to go by air! And, An alternative to the $100 hamburger.. ________________________________________________ I would like to get everyone's thoughts on a new Geocaching concept called AeroCaching. For years, pilots have embarked on the $100 hamburger flight as an excuse to fly. It's time to add a twist to the aviation community (and Geocachers alike) by replacing the old $100 hamburger concept with a new and exciting reason to fly. I have placed the first Geocache / AeroCache at Franklin County Airport in Louisburg, NC. Listed on the Geocaching.com website as "AeroCache - KLHZ" (GC86A4), it is accessible to all Geocachers and aviators alike. If this new AeroCaching concept takes hold, over time Geocachers worldwide will enjoy the speed at which their Travel Bugs navigate the planet.. Be a part of Aviation History and help establish an AeroCache at a General Aviation airport near you! AeroCaching - an alternative to the $100 hamburger

  6. Hey.. I agree with MRCPU - keep the bugs, it makes the experience unique. Possibly educate the group so as to NOT display serial numbers - either on the cache page or on the pictures of the actual bug. (like many have) I don't think newcomers know the ramifications of giving out the tracking number..
  7. Although new to the Geocaching craze, I read this thread for amusement. It really amazes me that a few individuals expect others to compensate them for THEIR stupidity. Equally amazing is the fact that certain individuals (DaleF?) have nothing better to do (Maybe I shouldn't complain? - I actually read this thread) than try to destroy an activity enjoyed by so many. Liability - Give me a BREAK.. My answer to all this - Geocaching Insurance... P.S. You aren't the same guy who sued CBS for eating Rats on Survivor are you?
