This is a simple update to replace the closed Runway 18/36 with an open one. I did *NOT* modify anything else on the field, including missing buildings - but I may update that in a future mod.
Orginally constructed as Blytheville Army Air Field in 1946, the airport briefly transitioned to city ownership before becoming Blytheville Air Force Base in 1955. The base hosted B-57's and B-52's, and was a ready alert facility during the Cold War. The base was closed in 1995, and currently serves as a MRO facility and aircraft boneyard. Many MD-80's and Boeing 717's were stored here during the COVID 19 pandemic, with most of the MD-80's being scrapped here.
It has a 11602' runway with an ILS and 2 RNAV (GPS) approaches - and is an excellent airfield to practice training in jet aircraft!
Installation: Move the "Arkansas Intl, Bytheville, AR KBYH" folder to your community folder (or use your preffered addon linker.)
