Remarks |
This one is Rich Mountain (PGO), in the state of Oklahoma, USA,
just across the state line from Mena, Arkansas. It used to be named 'Page'
(PaGe, Oklahoma), but the name was changed to stress the fact that the area,
which has claimed many aircraft over the years, including a Texas
International Convair 600, features high terrain. Beacon not visited by
myself (yet?). |
