Efforts are underway to get the airport declared an historical site.

“We want to get some federal funding and turn it into a national park,” said David Stitt, vice president of the B-29 BPMM.

Plans are being considered and more help is needed if the remaining pieces of the airfield can be incorporated into the memorial.

“We’re trying to get the community of Pratt involved in the Army airfield and museum,” Stitt said. “We want to restore the airfield.”

The group has also started a monthly newsletter called “Tailwind” after the original World War II paper at the airfield.
