Burning Man 2005

Black Rock International Airport boasted an impressive runway of 132,000 feet by 42,240 feet (25 miles and 8 miles, respectively). Of course, only maybe 5000 x 75 feet was graded out to get rid of the bumps, but in theory, I guess you could land anywhere. (FAA may have a different viewpoint, of course.)

The no-frills airport terminal -- but it was complete with a security checkpoint and 'Customs' officer. The airport office is equally low-tech in this era of heightened security... but it did the job. The airport hangar was next to the parking lot, with the restrooms (porta-potty) down the ways a bit.

The airport is shown on the map at the bottom of the pentagon-shape (which is the city itself). Some of the planes at the airport; there were something like 60 tie-down sites listed on the board. Black Rock Travel Agency's plane. The girl in the pink leg things is a photographer -- not an art display.
