ACTIVATED APRIL 1990 · CURRENT

The township's first field of record is an ultralight flightpark a mile west of town. The FAA record (as republished by AirNav, FAA information effective 17 April 2025) prints: identifier 36IN; position 41.5362° N, 86.4439° W (estimated), elevation 730 feet; "From city: 1 mile W of NORTH LIBERTY, IN"; use, private — "PERSONAL USE"; activation date 04/1990; no control tower; attendance unattended; a single runway NE/SW, 1,200 by 100 feet, turf; ownership privately owned, the owner and manager of record being Gary C. Peterson of North Liberty — the name printed at exactly the strength the federal facility record itself publishes it, with no address beyond the town carried here. Directory cross-checks (Pilot Getaways' and SkyVector's Indiana lists, OurAirports) carry the same field, identifier and dimensions. The one-mile-west position places the strip outside the incorporated town and inside Liberty Township, at FAA "from city" strength; a parcel-level boundary check stands as gap G-W3A-6. The strip's documented life before its registration is the accident article's: the 1988 NTSB record places a departing Cessna 172 on a North Liberty grass strip whose owner of record is the same name this record carries — the identification printed at strong-directory strength there, as here.
