Delamar Landing Field 788

Delamar Landing Field 788
The Caliente Landing Strip or Delamar Landing Field. This is simply a gravel landing strip that was built in the 40's, with no indications of there having been any other structures here. Access to it is over a rutted dirt road. From nearby US 93, you can't even tell that there was an air strip here -- it just looks like open desert. It is visible, however, in a satellite view (see map). Considering the remoteness and condition of the field, it is difficult to imagine how it might have been used. However, considering the secrecy of government and military activities in the 1940's and 1950's, it is possible that this was involved in training and/or testing of secret aircraft.
