Cross Winds Airport in Clayton, WA was abandoned after a 2014 windstorm destroyed two of its three hangars. The airfield was tilled and turned into a crop field, and the last airplane, a 1948 Ryan Navion (N4616K), was left to rot. The hangar still stands, and I visit the Navion every summer because I can't help but feel sad for it.

That’d take a lot of money to get airworthy, assuming you could even do it. It might be eat up with corrosion. Hate to see planes just sitting and rotting.

Здесь когда то жизнь била ключом, что он там делает такой унылый, и забытый😊

These old airplanes are expensive to fly so the owners store them and forget them.

@av8r376 My grandfather used to own this aircraft, I would like to get in touch with the current owner would you happen to have any information?

@av8r376 3 месяца назад

Unfortunately I don’t, not beyond anything already available online. Looks like the current owner is Ronald D Brown, who appears to live in Arizona. Look up the tail number and you’ll get an address for him; couldn’t hurt to send a letter.
