NDB AP CASSE 260 kHz Gone
FAA techs confirm AP 260 is gone. AP 206 failed in Jan 2017 and since it was to be decommissioned anyway AP will not be repaired. Also stated they could find the NOTAM. Neither could we.

This is a great place -- fly in park right in front on the ramp. Sometimes busy --- but fabulous airport eat place. Decent prices; free aircraft parking. My favorite is their wings club sandwich.
