Can we get 25L back, please? Final approach would be basically right over my house!

I thought 14/32 was used into the 80's?

I have a runway map that was drawn up in the early 80's and 14/32 is not on there

14/32 closed in 1990?

It's on my desk in Lawrence, I'll check it when I'm in town next week. I don't remember seeing that runway but you are right it seems to have been open till '90. Wonder how I missed an actual runway with all the time I spent staring at that map instead of doing my homework:confused:
