Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
Who knew there is (or was) a primitive high grass landing strip along US 41 just East of Port Manatee in Palmetto It claimed the high cotton title of "Airport Manatee" as if it deserved
Yesterday they got some press when a small plane carrying 4 unlucky folks crashed into a hanger instead of taking off I guess the winds must have been coming from that direction 3 escaped with minor injuries The pilot was hospitalized
The "Airport" had a 6 segment hanger that housed storage areas where people stored their planes and other stuff Four of the units burnt down including a few of the airplanes
Although Sarasota's "SRQ" is no bundle of fun I'll stay with it for now
