  1. I know both of those airports very well. Reid-Hillview #KRHV was my home base when I lived in San Jose. Los Banos #KLSN was a place I frequently visited due to restaurants in walking distance from the airport, but also for one emergency diversion. Also a couple times we used LSN as a stop for chase plane operations while waiting for high-altitude Ham Radio balloons to burst and then fly to collect telemetry and search for where they fell. #aviation #pilot #avgeek
