Abstract: Watauga County, a mountainous region in North Carolina, is currently without a public airport. A small private airfield is located on a floodplain east of the town of Boone, and within a residential sector. It is unpaved and subjected to constant "weather­ing in." In addition, the airfield lacks even the most basic of navigational aids. The present County Commissioners and a number of private citizens would like to improve the airfield or construct a new public airport.
