Geocache Description:

AeroCaching - A new concept for the adventure sport of Geocaching. and, an alternative to the $100 hamburger! When your ‘Travel Bug’ absolutely, positively has to travel by air!

This ‘Aviation Theme’ Cache is hidden somewhere at Caswell Airport (6W4), a small (public) grass field, 2 miles West of Yanceyville, NC. (The cache location was approved by the Airport Manager and is accessible anytime to both the General Public and Pilots alike without security concerns…)

This country airport is somewhat unique as it incorporates an underground bunker, built (under the runway) by an entrepreneur in response to the cold-war scare of the early 1960's. Although the bunker is currently empty, it was originally built to house a personal aircraft - somewhat protected from a nuclear attack.

Other interests include a couple of restored fire trucks - one from the late 1930's and one from the 1950's. Additionally, on Sundays there is a group of people that get together to fly radio controlled model aircraft. (You're welcome to wander around the grounds.)

Spread the word about AeroCaching and Help promote this new concept in Geocaching by establishing an AeroCache at all general aviation airports - worldwide...
