I'm not sure you'll get Les into the Insight. Though, he did drive the FASTiva.

Go toward those two little black spots (cars) at the lower right on your picture, then keep going down that dirty, dusty, disgusting, potholed, dirt road...(sorry)...

Take what you did a step further. You've had Google identify the address, now ask it for directions. It will take you there. Just follow that road until you get to the gate. (the point on your map is outside the airport property)

PM sent for trailer coordination.
Everybody make sure you say thanks to Les - dragging that trailer around is a chore.
