Have you seen lights circling in the night sky around Marion?
No, we don't have flying saucers. It is the night landing lights at the newly renovated Marion/Crittenden County Airport!
In a recent interview with an official of the airport board,
this writer found out that the new large hangar is now ready for use. The office building will be constructed next year and
perhaps the most exciting item is that the self-service
fuel system should be functional this summer.
Since many smaller airports no longer provide re-fueling services, this will make our local airport one of the most popular destinations for pilots in this area. This is particularly true in the late evening and night time hours when most re-fueling locations are closed.
Congratulations to the Marion/Crittenden County Airport and the supporting Board of Directors on the May 15, 2007 first anniversary of the re-opening of this field capable of handling corporate jets!
