Mountain View and Pahoa landing strips

[missydog1]

I read that the sugar cane landing strips were (mostly) decommissioned after operations shut down. There might be a list of such airstrips on record, should be. I guess they can't be used by civilian pilots once that shutdown happens, but the government could decide to open them again.

There was a huhu about a tour company trying to use one of the sugar landing strips on Hamakua side to land helicopters, and there was a whole debate with DLNR or some agency about whether or not it was still viable, is the reason I saw info on it.
