Thought they might come to FRG as they have done in the past, until I read a similiar article

I know a guy who flies for Kalitta, at least he used to, not sure if he's still there. He's been to FRG in the 727, but not the horse carrier. He said the runway is a little short, and can make for some "spirited" stops which can be tough on the horses, so they usually go into ISP now.
