“This project will help ensure that Amigos del Cielo will continue to be a stellar recreational destination, and provide a consistent landing surface for a wide variety of airplanes and pilot skill levels,” Keller said, adding, “As with any recreational airstrip, continued maintenance is needed to keep the airstrip in a safe and enjoyable condition.”
Keller points out that Amigos Del Cielo is famous for bird watching and star gazing, as well as its close proximity to Coronado National Forest and the Chiricahua Wilderness.
