 Fuller
will present a history of Logan County's first commercially viable
airport, which was located a half mile west of Lincoln at the site
of the current Walmart plaza.
He will also open the meeting to those wishing to
relate their interactions with the Bock Airport and show
memorabilia.
The local airport enthusiast plans to document information attained
at this meeting and submit it to a national website featuring
abandoned and little known airfields.
