Subject: [fairchildclub] file upload: unpaved public airports of the US


> Hi All,

> The snow has finally melted here, and my thoughts are turning to air

> G happiest, and started hunting for a way to find 'em all. The web
> services (eg, AirNav) were no help, but I found one can order a CD of
> the latest FAA facilities database for a reasonable fee, so I did.
>
> The CD files are not in a convenient format, but I was able to read the
> data into a Filemaker database and then prepare a listing of all public
> use unpaved airstrips in the US. (There are over 1200; Michigan tops the
> list with 139.
>
> I have uploaded a PDF file of the full US listing, bookmarked by state.
> It is a big file (1.1mb), so I also uploaded a smaller sample of only
> the Michigan listings.
>
> Private strips are included in the FAA database, but do not appear in my
> uploaded file. I can generate a full listing of any state if anyone
> wants one...

> Now get out there and crush some clover!
