    Our field is a 4 acre facility located in a 600 acre farm. There is a 300' long by 35' wide geosynthetic (Petromat) primary runway and an adjacent 400' long by 75' wide grass runway. A dedicated helipad and flight area is located on the south end of the flying field.

To aid in preparing airplanes and helicopters for flight and for safety purposes, several work/startup tables are available in the startup area. Individual pilot safety stations are located adjacent to the runway and helipad. The pit area (pilot and aircraft holding area) is separated from the startup and flying area by a safety fence.
