Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Edward G. Pitka Sr. Airport is a state-owned public-use airport located in Galena, a city in the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska. Edward G. Pitka Sr. Airport covers an area of 1,250 acres (506 ha) which contains two runways: 7/25 with an asphalt/concrete pavement measuring 7,249 by 150 feet (2,209 x 46 m) and 6/24 with a gravel surface measuring 2,786 by 80 feet (849 x 24 m). The airport also sports a ski-jump takeoff ramp at one end and provisions for arresting gear (see picture, ski jump at 07 end) at the other, a leftover from the Cold War years as Galena Air Force Base, as tactical aircraft required more landing and takeoff space than was available on the runway.
