Comments and historyProbably an abandoned bomber base. No real trace of this base can be found on satellite imagery, and what imagery exists is poor; declassified satellite imagery previews are also poor quality. A 1991 TPC chart gives a runway length of 13400 ft but refers to it as a minor airfield.
