SkyRanch in Carefree was Arizona’s first airport to offer fly-in residences and was originally built as a way to draw investors and guests to the Carefree area, as town founders Tom Darlington and K.T. Palmer sought investors for their community in 1951.
Since then the airport has grown to accommodate more planes and still offers residences hangers and fly-in access to their homes.
“We are excited to put on a celebration that commemorates 50 years of Arizona flight history with a full day of events for aviation buffs of all ages,” said Samantha Gessell, SkyRanch representative.
“From being the first Arizona facility to offer fly-in access to homes, to the long line of military pilots who have flown in and out on our runway, SkyRanch is proud of the role the airport played for pilots and guests,” she said.
