I used to fly in and out of there a lot when I was stationed at McGuire AFB. It was a pretty neat place to go "in the day".

Default Flying W

Flying W pool dates to the early sixties, a bit before the first RV. The airport was closed for a long time so most information reflects when the airport was reopened, not when it was originally built.
The guy who built the place operated a small airline with piston cargo airplanes such as the C46 and Martin Airliner. A lot of history there.
