Mystery Airport
Everytime I fly into DFW, I see what appears to be a piece of runway about 2 miles south of the airport. Finally looked up what it was and found out that this used to be a big airport. Lots of pictures and information about this mystery airport can be found here: http://www.airfields-freeman.com/TX/Airfields_TX_FtWorth_NE.html
Amarillo Air Force Base

Home of NORAD ID Z-88, guardian of the Gulf of Mexico. Capable of launching 3 B-52's side by side 25 sec. apart , it would shake cars 4 miles away. Alternate landing field for the US Space Shuttles .
re: Found utley texas
Reply to @thod: I changed the latitude of the airport from 0 to the same as the latitude of Utley TX, and I've changed the +97.41 to -97.41. Still don't see an airport there.

re: This can't be right?
There's no airport of this name in the FAA or Eurocontrol data.
This can't be right?
Location of this field must be wrong?

Not in service for many years. Most recently a motorcycle junkyard.
Chinese Food
San Angelo has a great Chinese food resaurant on the airport grounds. Very good food and large portions.
Sutton County Steak House
Great food within 1/4 mile of airport.
airport
we were up there on our bicycles after riding from the park, pretty rough shape, I don't think I would land my plane there.
Home Base

Hassle Free
For a large airport, this one is easy to get in and out of and I'm proud to call it my home airport. I've never had any problems at DFW.
needs new manager
seems shady in my opinion
El Jardin Ranch
Private airstrip of Oil and Gas tycoon Rod Lewis. Has been known to keep a number of warbirds here. Anita Perry, Governor Perry's wife, was uninjured in a mishap of a B-25, on which she was a passenger, here on 3/26/11.
Rio Concho
They don't even do the Burgers anymore since this past summer restaurant has been shut down.
Ganze Ranch Airstrip is now a par 5!!
The ranch is now part of the Firewheel Golf course. The "airstrip" might be a bit rough to land on these days....watch out for the bunkers!!
Phone number is wrong
The phone number listed for this in many places is out-of-date.
1992 Flight Star
I am interested in viewing a Flight Star, Was wondering if you all knew anyone at your air park that had one I could come and view. Would be nice to see one first hand. If you know if any in the area, I would greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks, Robert Karr
KBBD (Brady, TX)
My home field. cheapest fuel within 100 miles. Line service 24/7 when coming in after 20:00 central time call for service. AWOS 118.375 No self serve fuel but they do have trucks for 100LL and JP8 (jet fuel) and also have 4 Helicopter pads. Free coffee, WIFI, and computer service. If ya have a cell phone other than AT&T it wont work. The airport manager and Line manager live on the airport. If ya have bad service let me know and I will take care of it. The airport manager is my father.
private well kept.
Nice strip, clean but private, and prior permission required. Has auto fuel.

Guinn Flying Service
Does anyone remember Helen and Joel Guinn that ran Guinn Flying Service out in Pearland?
Mustang Beach
Wow, this is a COOL beachside resort. A throwback to the surf towns of the 60's and 70's. Everyone takes it nice and easy, certainly a drastic change from the hustle and bustle of nearby Houston (about 1.5 hrs away by Archer or the like). It's a little far from town, but there is a cheap bus that runs roughly hourly, and inside the "FBO" building there are phone numbers for local taxi service that will pick you up in a few minutes.
The Texas Mile
This is where they hold The Texas Mile - a weekend of drag racing on the east-west runway. Great fun, especially to fly in, tie down in the corner where the runways (almost) meet, able in an enjoy the action!
