Q59, Fremont airport,Calif. Old runway 31L,31R was a nice dirt runway.This was also the starting point for many (15 years worth) of my flying adventures! They sure were good years to be in general aviation.Would not trade them for anything!

- Fremont airport is at the bottom of picture and Moffett Federal airport (NUQ) is above it seen in the distance. View is to the west.Picture is from 1986 soon after closure.Years of following the levees(at safe alt) sure helped flying coordination. - by S B J

- Fremont airport,Calif. soon after its 1986 closure.Due to the short closure notice and removal of planes and hangars,there were some angry owners. An X on a runway, I have seen to many in my time. View is east. - by S B J
