"The Mid-American Air Center, Lawrenceville-Vincennes Airport is located approximately four miles northeast of Lawrenceville, Ill., and six miles northwest of Vincennes, Ind. With approximately 50,000 annual operations and 44 based aircraft, the airport is an important base of activity for business and personal flights to and from the southern Illinois-Indiana area it services. Since taking over the airport from the United States Army Air Corps, the Bi-State Authority has strived to meet the needs of both the airport users and the surrounding communities. Over the past 10 years the Bi-State Authority has authorized more than $3.3 million of improvements at the Lawrenceville-Vincennes Airport." ~
Mid-America Air Center
"Today, the former training field is a general aviation airport, serving the local area. Three of the World War II runways remain in use as a main and as a crosswind runways. The massive parking apron remains, mostly unused, and sections of unused taxiways and runways remain, some partially removed for hardcore. The large station area is completely obliterated, with some of the wartime streets remaining as an airport access road and other agricultural roads; the buildings were long ago torn down or moved with a few concrete foundations remaining in the large grassy area. The military hangars on the flightline are gone, their concrete floors visible and exposed to the elements." ~ Wikipedia
