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
