This was one of the many Flight Strips which were built by the US Army Air Forces during WW2 for the emergency use of military aircraft. The 6400' paved runway was constructed in 1943. Following the war it became a civilian landing field. It was closed in the early 1960s but then reopened. Closed again sometime prior to 2000.
