Our center is located on a now defunct military manufacturers plant. Once home of Grumman, builders of the F-14 and Lunar Modules, is now home to skydivers. The airport is HUGE! We use an 10,000 foot long runway, and have a 5 acre landing area along the taxiway. It takes some effort to land "off" here!
