Our chapter home base and normal meeting location is Gaston Airport (2SC8), a privately owned airport located about 3 miles south of Gaston, SC. It's also located just inside the outermost ring of the Class C airspace south of Columbia Metro (KCAE), so you must stay below 1800' MSL or be in contact with KCAE.
