Simon Rose always dreamed about having a home with an airstrip to fly his Stinson 108-3 aircraft from rather than drive to the airport every time he wanted to go for a flight.
Since air parks are not very common in Alberta, the only option was to look for some suitable land to build a home and hangar on.
After looking for a nice, flat,half mile of obstruction free land for a number of years without success, Simon was beginning to give up hope.
Then one day, on the way home from the airport, a local farmer had put up a "Land for Sale" sign.
Simon contacted him immediately for the details.
After a brief discussion with Simons beautiful and very understanding wife, the deal was done and Rose Field was in the works.
A hangar was built first in 2001, then a home built the following year and another hangar constructed in 2006.
Rose Field has a fly in BBQ every year in September so be sure to check the Events page for the details.
