THE MOST CONVENIENT SUMMER VACATION? FLYING TO THE JERSEY SHORE


The Jersey Shore is the perfect summer vacation destination. With the cold winter days finally behind us, we’re all eager to get some sun, feel the sand between our toes, and go for a refreshing dip in the ocean. Rather than fly commercial and deal with long security lines, and unavoidable delays, why not hire a private plane and use Monmouth Executive Airport instead? Just a short 30-minute drive from the beautiful Jersey Shore, Monmouth Airport is conveniently located near the New Jersey coastline and we’re beyond ready to welcome you for your summer getaway. 

Why use Monmouth Executive Airport?

  • It’s faster than a commercial airport. It’s no secret that summer is a popular time to travel, and anyone who’s flown through a commercial airport in the summer knows how miserable it can be. It takes ages to get through security, especially now with enhanced COVID-19 protocols and restrictions. And we all know there are even delays after boarding when your plane is already on the runway. At smaller executive airports like Monmouth, you won’t have to deal with any of these annoyances.
  • It’s convenient, especially if you live on the coast. Coastal fliers frequently use smaller, executive airports because they’re more convenient and you’re able to land much closer to your destination. Monmouth Executive Airport is only a 30-minute drive from the Jersey Shore, so you can start your summer vacation very shortly after landing!
  • We have on-site aircraft hangars and maintenance. Whether you have your own private plane or choose to hire one for your vacation, at Monmouth Airport we have available hangar space and a team of on-site aircraft mechanics who will keep your plane in top working condition. Commercial airports often have waiting lists for their hangars – yet another benefit of using executive airports. 

Get your summer started with Monmouth Airport

Whether you live nearby, a few states away, or all the way down the coastline, Monmouth Airport is the convenient choice to get your summer vacation started in style. After landing at our airport you’ll be at the Jersey Shore in a mere 30 minutes. When you fly with us you won’t encounter long lines, nor will you spend hours waiting around at your gate, and you can be assured that your aircraft will be safely stored and properly maintained while you’re soaking up some sun.

THE UNCOMPLICATED AND COMPLICATED PARTS OF FLYING

Flying has long captured the interest of people around the world. If you’ve always wanted to learn how to fly, now is an excellent time to pursue a new hobby and maybe turn it into a future career. But do you know what learning to fly includes? Many people aren’t aware of the complicated and uncomplicated parts of flying, so in this article we’ll go through them in detail. 

The less complicated aspects of flying

  • Getting familiar with radio communications and terminology. Pilots use radios as their main form of communication and they also have their own lingo, including specialized terms and abbreviations for various things. If you’re unfamiliar with pilot lingo and you listen to pilots speaking via radio, it may sound like a different language, but you’ll quickly catch on with a little bit of practice.
  • Using the controls in the cockpit. At first glance, it looks confusing when you see all the buttons, switches, panels, and levers. However, mastering the controls will soon feel second nature after completing several flight simulations with a certified instructor. 
  • Confidence and a positive attitude. It sounds obvious, but having confidence and a positive attitude goes a long way for pilots, especially when they need to make quick decisions on their feet. 

The more complicated aspects of flying

  • Dealing with severe or unpredictable weather. From strong winds to heavy rains and whatever else mother nature throws their way, pilots are required to learn aviation meteorology. This is so they’re well-prepared to navigate as safely as possible through difficult weather conditions. 
  • Becoming accustomed to living in a three-dimensional environment. When you drive a car you look left, right, straight ahead, and behind you to check for traffic and obstacles, and to make sure your path is clear. When flying a plane you have to add two more dimensions: up and down. It definitely takes some getting used to checking all directions while flying.
  • Multitasking like a master. Many of us think we’re good at multitasking, but pilots frequently have to engage in five or six tasks at the same time – each one requiring precision. Of course, practice makes perfect, and experienced pilots are often multitasking masters.
