We've got fewer trees now but the ones we have
are much larger.

Good Evening Bob,

Thanks much!

Looks like a great location but it appears that the local airport is a bit under utilized.

Happy Skies,

Old Bob

Good Evening Once again Bob,

As near as I can tell the photo you provided is from the east looking west and you were paralleling North Cedar Street. Your property appears to be between Rosarian Avenue and Curry Lane with North Cedar Street on the west and Good? Street on the East. What happened to all of the industrial buildings to the east?

Happy Skies,

Old Bob

Old Bob,
I think the street is Goodview and the property you describe is a church….

Good Morning Bill,

Goodview sounds good to me, but the buildings, church or industrial, that Bob shows in his thirty year old photo no longer seem to be there unless I am looking at the wrong location!

Happy Skies,

Old Bob

Good Evening Bob,

Yeah . . . I got my first airplane ride off that
airport when I was about 4 or 5 years old. Dad
got his ticket in a J-3 on the GI bill.

They're making noises about a new airport for
M.L. seems like there's some bundle of our grandchildren's
money that's being handed out for some form of
stimulus or another. Problem with current location
is outcropping of gypsum laden dirt off north end
of the runway that disqualifies it for an instrument
approach. They're talking about a new facility
somewhere southeast.

The town of Pixley blew away in a tornado about 1940 or so and
was never rebuilt but it was never removed from the maps. Our
house is the little red dot in the upper left corner. Maybe
we can turn the old airport into an ultralight facility.

Bob . . .

Ok Bob!

It appears that Google located your address to the east of where it really is. My current take is that the photo was taken from the north facing south and that your home is in the middle of the block. The buildings I questioned must be the hospital.

While I still hate and mistrust computers, it is amazing what Google Earth can provide for us.

The location at Pixley looks interesting. It even appears there might be a runway there already!

Happy Skies,

Old Bob

PS. My first solo was in a 1940 Franklin powered J-3 and one of my first flying jobs was instructing for the GI Bill program. Great memories!

. . . no. The top of the photo is south. The building to
the southwest is the hospital where dad and mom spent their
last days. That hospital was built when I was in the second
grade. I think my sister was either #1 or #2 patient when
she developed a high fever. The street in front of the hospital
is Walnut. The houses to our east face Cedar. The only
large buildings close to that intersection will be the hospital
in our back yard and the catholic church about 1.5 blocks to n.e.

Google doesn't have our location right, we're up the
hill between Cedar and Walnut.
