The airport is privately owned but certified every year as public use. It is currently cared for and owned by a husband (Rich) and wife (Ginger). The runway is basically their backyard and they continue to provide it to you as their commitment to keeping vintage airplanes and their operating environment (grass runways) alive for the future generations to enjoy.

It is a little different from a lot of airports in that it is certified by the FAA as part of the national transportation system but owned by individuals instead of a municipality. Therefore, we receive no funding from outside sources (except occasional donations from those that frequent the airport). We spend more than ½ of our income to keep it up and operating because we love aviation! Aviation is pretty much our life!

We call everyone that visits and/or participates in its operation our airport family. We hope that you fly-in to visit us and become part of the airport family at Lee Bottom Flying Field.
