items 9 and 11, township part — the small field the federal record carries under this town's name

One landing facility in the federal record carries the New Carlisle name: Hustons Airport, FAA identifier IN93 — a private grass strip at 41.7151° N, 86.4329° W, elevation 759 feet, with a single runway, 18/36, of 2,300 by 52 feet, turf. The record reached gives it at directory strength only: no operations count, no based-aircraft line, no founding date, and no public-use standing — it does not appear on the state's public-use airport list, because it is not one. The strip stands east of the town on the prairie toward South Bend, and its precise township is a boundary question this section tests in the open and does not close: the FAA's associated city is a postal fact, not a township fact, and at that longitude the ground may sit in Portage Township rather than Olive — the settler is the FAA Form 5010 master record read with the county GIS parcel layer, and the strip is carried here under its federal name with the question printed, exactly at that strength. It is, at directory strength, the whole of this town's airport record: one private strip, permission required, grass.
