Long Description:
This small turf airport is owned and operated by Richard and Linda Packer. It provides a couple of hangers and tiedowns, and is open to the public. Approximately 7 aircraft are kept on site. The airport also has fuel provisions and provides airframe and engine service.

The planes that are kept on site include aerobatic and agricultural aircraft, as well as some vintage aircraft as well. I grew up near this airport and would frequently see pilots practicing aerial maneuvers during the summer. Crop dusting services are also provided to the local farmers from this airfield.

This was also the site of http://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WM30W6>a plane crash in 1997.
