The apron in front of the domestic airline hangars was an exceptional place for aircraft photography. There were no fences, the taxiway serving the main east-west runway passed close and there was shelter from sun and rain. When the north-south runway was fully extended in 1972, passing traffic was only on days when the winds demanded it. Soon after the apron became a restricted area.

Former Biegert Aviation aircraft abandoned and later set on fire by vandals in 2015 or 2016 resulting in the nose section separating from the rest of the fuselage. I believe the remains of this aircraft are still on the field in 2018.
