It's a great website addressing the abandoned & lost airfields of the USA and it possessions. He has done a great job covering the many WWII military auxilary airfields that were so ubiquitous in Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Florida et.al The website has been around since at least 2003 and he is always looking for new information, photos, personal experiences etc. Contributors always are creditied!

And with access to aerial photos from differing periods. Great site. Might be work changing the heading though. There are some good online aerials of the US going back to the 1940s.

Has anyone looked at Las Vegas on Google Earth using the rollback facility. A truly amazing transformation, especially since the 60s.

I have had my eye on this for over year as I think its second to none. I did try and get the webmaster on here but not heard anything.

You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!

Paul Freeman has been running that site since somewhere around 1998 - I know I found it in 1999 and it was already well developed...I was happy to be able to make a small contribution to one of the Tucson fields.

He has gradually expanded the frontiers to take in Alaska, Hawaii, PR ,and the Pacific Islands.

It is a site I visit very regularly and always find something new.

All in all probably one of the best websites dealing with airfields that you will find.

See my Hampshire,Dorset,Devon,IOW Airfields sites..
