RAF Secures Five-Year Deal for Creighton Island Backcountry Airstrip

The Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) has successfully negotiated a five-year agreement with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR). This deal ensures continued public recreational access for pilots to the backcountry airstrip on Creighton Island. The new long-term arrangement replaces a previous one-year agreement, providing greater stability for the general aviation community. The 1,900-foot turf runway is a popular destination for pilots seeking a unique coastal flying experience.
