Lake Hefner area before Lake Hefner

Thanks, Martin. I knew about the Nuckolls airport but I've often heard of one "right off 29th," as it was described. Thanks again, guess we'd better let them get back to Lake Hefner.

The original OKC Municipal Airport, back in the late 20s, was at the SW corner of SW 29 and May, where Woodson Park is now located. I'm not certain just when it moved farther out to the present location, but it was at SW 59 and Meridian by the late 30s...

During the Cold War era, the Strategic Air Command had a detachment stationed at Woodson Park to score practice bombing runs over OKC!

Now back to Bluff Creek...

Pete, if you have it, I'd love to see a hi-res from 54/5 of the section bounded by Memorial/MacArthur/122/Rockwell (West Ave) or thereabouts....

Thanks Jim Kyle, I know more now than I did. Indeed, back to Bluff Creek
