Should probably be in the Cafe or General forums.
Sad story all the same.
I mean Airfield or Houses?
I'd choose the first.

Sad...  This must have happened hundreds of times in the last 30 or 40 years around the US, UK, and elsewhere. For a year during the 50s I was lucky enough to live a couple of blocks from a "neighborhood" airport similar to this one.  There was a lot of interest, I suppose partially due to pilots returning from WWII.

It was a real treat to lie on my back in the front yard and watch Waco cabin bipes do loops right overhead.  I think that time was at least part of the golden age of flight.  Some decades ago, it became a low-middleclass subdivision .

. sad that it is closing. More houses..., just like everywhere else around here.

*Sigh*  Next thing you know, they'll be closing Meigs...    Oh, wait...  ;)
