Comments about arriving and departing.  Be careful not to enter San Diego's class B on climb out.
Things to do at or near the airport. There are some good breakfast places in town but you'll need a ride. Town is 3 miles away.
Rate this stop with 10 being best, 5 average. 5.0 Great airport, nice FBO's, nice area nothing else to do. This airport screams for fly-in breakfast place.

Landing at the Ramona Airport
The last time I landed in Ramona was 1972 and I can say the airport has improved. Control Tower, Jet Center and 3 nice FBO's .The runway and ramp has been improved but there is nothing for one to do. What a great place for an airport restaurant. Less than an hour from both Los Angeles and San Diego and outside the hustle of Class B and C airspace. Maybe someday...  

My friend met me in his car and we went to town for Breakfast. The City of Ramona lays in the foothills and has kept it's rural charm. The surrounding area is very pretty and just 15 minutes from Rancho Bernardo. This would be a better choice than other San Diego airports if you need to visit North San Diego County.

For now, Ramona is just a good controlled airport for students needing cross country time.
