This will require you host the annual AW fly in.
They'll still do a touch-and-go just to knock the gear out of battery.
We rotary types can just use the front lawn, driveway, roof, etc.
This needs to be a thing.
That’s why you invite the jet guys...they’ll burn it off. In the fall the helicopter guys can come in a leaf-blowers. In fact, I’m willing to bet the Osprey guys could do both jobs, burn and churn.
The best I can figure is KGKT. About equal distance from most of us. There is a nice warbird museum there with two flying P-47’s and Dollywood isn’t far away so @mad dog will be amused!
Sikorsky sold the license for the S-55 (H-19) and S-58 (H-34). It may have been built as recently as the '90s, I think. Still very cool.
I used to talk my VFR nav students onto a MiG-23 in somebody's front yard. It was an old gate guard at a base, the base was getting rid of some stuff, and the guy apparently got it towed to his place out in the sticks. The funny thing was there are some impressive junk piles of old cars and stuff on the guy's property.
