Good gas stop
Must have been an old military base. Massive runway. ForeFlight said fair condition but I would say it was good
good gas stop
TWO avgas pumps!!
poor shape
this airport is in poor condition, not sure if its really even open as there were small X's on the runway

What a fun approach! Met family there and when the attendant saw kids come into the airport, he gave them all rubber band balsa gliders.

Truck Stop!
Great little grass runway airport. Park next to the semi's at the north end of the runway and walkin to the country diner truck stop. Great food!
Great Airport Destination!
Love the diner, and the museum, and my wife's air medical "CareFlight" base. the place I fly to the most. Love Urbana Grimes!
Almost gone...
Nothing left but the runway. Pretty sad, grew up about a mile off the end of the runway, used to be very busy with well over a hundred based planes... sigh

Great Little Airstrip!
My Home Airport! Love flying here.
Easy in and out
Great fuel prices although advertised as self service lineboy helped us
Better get it right
It's kind of short and narrow. The trees on the east end can be a bit unnerving for a low time pilot.
It's an airpot
Only did a T&G. I'm just adding airports to my list of airports
is this really an airport
We were flying from Huntington to Indiana last week and stopped at Vinton County for the first time since Manyak took care of the place. I used to fly into this airport a lot and was shocked at what I found. There are people, as far as I can tell, actually living at the airport. There's garbage and dirty clothes everywhere and it looks like a clubhouse or something. Part of the ceiling had collapsed. My wife said it was actually frightening to go into what is left of the terminal. And don't even ask about the smell.
Pilots 'n Paws
This airport is very PnP friendly and can board animals overnight if necessary. Also give fuel discount on PnP flights.
Closed
Airport is closed. Use KPCW.
Neat location
One of the nicest all grass facilities I have ever seen. Recently visited for the Waco fly-in.
Nice airport, got my class III here
John Schoettmer M.D. seems nice enough. He conducted my class III. He's also a retired AF F-16 pilot. Over-achiever if you ask me.
re: I think the code is wrong. This is KPOV
Reply to @Randallksparks: You are correct. Updated.
I think the code is wrong. This is KPOV
I landed here last week. It was coded as KPOV.

Bad runway
The referenced runway 06/24 seems to belong to the 'Semnan New Airport' in Iran, see http://ourairports.com/airports/IR-OI21
The problem is probably the coinciding identifier US-OI21 vs. IR-OI21

Ndb
The NDB at Hamilton/Hogan field is no longer working. It has been silent for two years.
Food
Great restaurant!

Priebe was where I remember flying out of as a kid in the 1980's and early 1990's. Sometime around 2010 the airport was sold to the county sanitation and the landfill is very nearby. However, you can still see remnants of the runway (cut in half with a road dissecting it and in very poor shape) as well as the aircraft tiedowns just west of the former runway. The old prop shop (which operated as an event space prior to being sold) has been torn down, but the hangar that Jim Priebe built in the late 1980's is still in use by the landfill for storing equipment.
re: Your marker is off.
You should notify the FAA then, because this site has it the same place the FAA puts it - 41.2667N, 80.76645W
Your marker is off.
It needs to be moved about 2 inches to the right in this image.
Good Eats!
Check out the Skyline Family Restaurant! What a great diner destination!!!
FBO
We spent some time here in August of 2012 and found the owners of Tailwinds Aviation to be very friendly and hospitable. Services were fairly priced including fuel. The airport is well maintained and I would not hesitate to recommend it for most light aircraft.

Easy to and Through
Dayton Intl. Airport truly lives up to it's motto: "Easy to and through".
code 45OH
The FAA uses '45OH' for Boober Airport, New Richmond, Ohio
Awesome Airport
