Abandoned and Little-Known Airfields
We  aren't often impressed (once a day, tops). Every once in a while, though, a site like this one -- dedicated to Abandoned and Little Known Airfields -- really knocks us for a loop. Run by high-flyin' pilot Paul Freeman, the site gives visitors a chance to buzz 1,100 airfields in all 50 states. We don't care what the topic is; researching and writing about 1,100 of anything would make most folks crazy enough to jump without a 'chute. What keeps Freeman so motivated? As he puts it, "Both for their potential safety value to a pilot in an emergency, and also for their sometimes fascinating history, this particular topic has always held my curiosity." Take a look at the photos, maps, and history that stretch from Alaska to Virginia and you'll understand why this flyboy's curiosity takes off. (in Travel) |
