Airports for antique aircraft
text:
Airports for antique airplanes are aerodromes with facilities appropriate to the aircraft of the early twentieth century, including, for example, turf runways. In many cases they are collocated with aircraft museums. Aircraft built before the end of World War I had different requirements for the landing field than modern aircraft. Modern runways are built for maximum friction. Antique aircraft, sensitive to crosswinds and often equipped with skids, benefit from a relatively slippery turf field.
