Kingman Army Air Field Building Key







Kingman Army Air Field

Building Key


Here is something that is very interesting, the building key is building list of any military base.... I created this some time ago after I was looking at the base map. KAAF was of the theater of operations design, which means temporary and yet some 6 buildings are still at the airport being used on a daily basis. Note: One of the smaller hangers was loss due to fire. Sometime in the 1980s, the big hanger was sold and removed. Recently another was demo to the ground.
