Melrose Landing is one of Florida's best kept SECRETS!!!!

Up in the sand hills east of Gainesville sits a quiet community with a very nice paved, lighted runway. The long needle pine and turkey oaks hide an abundant deer population and a bunch of pilots and non-pilots. This is a private airstrip, if you are not a member you need to request permission from a member to Fly-In. Take a look at a Flight Guide type chart for the airport.
