Stuttgart Arkansas

[Iflydogs]

Flying anywhere in Arkansas is going back in time ( State Motto:You are now leaving the 21st Century.) But check out these pics from KSGT, about three dozen hulls in various states of decomposition. Quite fun rummaging through them.Stopped for fuel, stayed for the wrecks.

That looks like a fun place to visit.

Good grief. What a mess!

BYH is a massive scrapping operation, too. 11000ft runway in the middle of nowhere with massive ramps.

GWO is similar but on a smaller scale. BYH was a B-52 AF bomber base at one time.

Yea, they use it for top speed events too. It feels weird landing on a runway that big

I flew a charter to Stuttgart for some bird hunters. Laid down for a nap in my hotel room, and woke up to the sound of water running. Went into the bathroom to find water coming through the ceiling into my bathtub.

Just another day in the charter biz.

I landed there 34 years ago and always wanted to go back. Carl Humphrey let us sleep in the terminal on a very stormy May night. First time I ever saw a PC with color radar and internet connetion. Things sure have changed. That was a NC to Co, and back, trip in a Cessna 140. Possibly the worst month of the year for that trip...
