Built in 1942, French Frigate Shoals Airport has one runway designated 06/24 with a coral surface measuring 3,000 by 200 feet (914 x 61 m) at an elevation of six feet (2 m) above mean sea level. The runway is closed, except for emergencies, or with prior permission from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.
During World War 2, the facilities included a barracks, radar tower, and fuel tanks as well as others buildings to support operations there. The station had parking spaces for 18-22 small aircraft at that time, and was a refueling stop between Midway and Hawaii.
Added a new runway and scenery.
Enjoy!
