Default private runway

That is what I was thinking. If you are the only one landing there just make
the strip and land. The only problem might be insurance.

You guys sure make it too complicated..

Several years ago I ferried a champ to a farmer in Western NY state. He
just mowed a strip in his field. Worked fine for him. Of course it was NOT
a public facility.

Of course this was long before thoes insane lawyer home owners in Mass
sued an actobatic practice area.

1. contact your local government agency to see if where you are has any
prohibitions regarding landing sites in their jurisdiction.
2. contact your state aviation agency about state regulations that apply
to landing sites.
3. download a copy of the FAA 5010 form and the instructions on how to
fill out the form.

http://www.faa.gov/airports_airtraff...sources/forms/

scroll down to Airspace/Landing Area and select
Notice of Landing Area Proposal (1/93) (PDF) 7480-1 MS Word
Notifies the FAA of any construction, alteration, activation,
deactivation, or change to the status or use of a civil or joint-use
(civil/military) airport (part 157)

4. contact the FAA ADO (Airport District Office) for the Region of the
country you live in.

May also want to consider your state aeronautics board, and perhaps the
local town administration.. there may be zoning or other ordnances that
need
to be considered.
