Small communities cannot ignore
the Air Age because they are not
reached by the airlines. The ghost
towns of the future will have died
because they had no landing strip.
Indicative of the interest in provid
ing landing strips for their towns
are the many requests for airport
information received from town of
ficials, chambers of commerce,
fliers, and oil companies with gas
stations to revamp.
An advantage to the average lit
tle town in carrying out landing
strip plans now, is prestige for
progressiveness in stimulating the
growth of new industry: there will
be new jobs around the airport;
more transient trade will come to
the town; other industries will like
the location if raw materials and
| parts are accessible by air and town
i merchants can fly in special mer
I chandise for their customers. Bul
warking these points is the theory
that once there are landing facili
ties in an area, people’s interest in
buying or renting planes and flying
will snowball rapidly.
All that is needed is a straight
sod strip at least 1800' by 100',
running into the prevailing winds, a
wind sock, a direction pointer, air
marking numerals and corner
markers. This is the minimum. It
should be near the town and high
way, allowing for expansion into a
regular airport complete with hang
ers, servicing facilities, parking
space, shops, etc. Even though
planning along this line is greatly
encouraged, care should be taken to
insure that large expenditures are
not made for improvements which
may become obsolete within a few
years.
