Dallas
Bay Skypark began life as the Optimist Club Drag
Strip back in the late 50s and early 60s.
In the mid 60s the dragstrip was moved to East Ridge, TN and John Flewellyn and his family bought the old dragstrip and turned it into a private runway. In the early 70s the airstrip became an FAA certified public airport with the designation 1A0.
In 2002, a group of investors, all with a passion for flying, bought Dallas Bay Skypark and have been running it ever since.
