The Confederate Air Force museum is on the southwest corner of the airfield, with preserved DC-6 XA-TDR. Access is open at the airport to the hangar/GA areas, use discretion. Many of the residents are tied down under T-hangars, others are scattered about on the ramp. Marsh's compound of Trackers is further along to the northeast. The large Boeing complex (helicopters) is north of the runway, although some views of their ramp can be seen from the tower/GA area. | |||
A few aircraft are stored across the runway along the northern perimeter. These can be seen from Greenfield Road, and the few driveways leading to the east of Greenfield. | |||
