Website chronicles 2,868 abandoned and little-known airfields

The "Abandoned & Little-Known Airfields" website, created by Paul Freeman, is a comprehensive resource detailing the histories of 2,868 airfields across all 50 states. Launched in April 1999, the site is supported by financial contributions from visitors and organizations such as LightBox and the American Aviation Historical Society, rather than commercial advertising. Freeman, an aviation enthusiast, aims to preserve the historical and safety information related to these often-overlooked airfields, and actively seeks contributions of historical materials and photographs from the public.
