Spanaway

After reading the post on VUO, I thought I'd throw this one out.
How many remember the old Spanaway airport S44.

I was based there for years. As it closed I moved to Thun. Later to AZ.

It was a real fun laid back airport. I really miss it.

My friend and I flew some cargo in there sometime back in the 80's. We didn't realize until we got there that the runway width listed was for the grass and the pavement part was just wide enough to clear the Aztec's gear. While we were there we watched a Pitts TO and climb out inverted. Cool place.

Favorite hangout when I was at PLU. Three cents a pound rides twice.
