Wild Rose Idlewild Airport is a small country
airport located 2 1/2 miles NE of the Village. It has two turf runways
East/West, 2960 feet long by 100 feet wide and a North/South, 1600 feet
long by 100 feet wide. The main runway has pilot controlled lighting. It
is open year round. At the present time, the North/South runway is not
plowed during winter months. There are 16 hangars, a pilot lounge, and a
maintenance/storage building.
The airport is operated for the Village of Wild Rose by the Wild Rose
Airport Association, a non-profit corporation. No state or federal money
is given to the airport for it's operations.
As a means of raising funds, the association holds an annual fly-in
typically held in June. Features of the fly-in include unique airplanes,
airplane rides, a fly-in breakfast, and a much anticipated Pig Roast
dinner. This event attracts many of the local and visiting pilots, not
quite the scale of EAA, however, we could get there. |
