An honesty note. The airport's operating directive requires liability insurance with Clark County as an additional insured; a widely cited figure is $1M general / $1M auto, but we could not open the primary permit-application page to confirm it — so confirm current insurance limits and any annual permit fee directly with the Department of Aviation before relying on them.
