Summary of the link:
According to an article by Lynn Wolstenholme in the 1/2/08 issue of the Loudoun Times-Mirror, the sole remaining plane based at Glascock Field was the Cessna 150 owned by 89 year old Fairfax resident Howard Junkerman.
Howard reported, “I use the field & go up for leisure & travel.”
According to the Loudoun Times-Mirror article, “eventually the landing strip will be surrounded by 276 homes, a more than 1-million square foot office park and a hospice center with 2 heliport pads. Loudoun's Board of Supervisors recently approved Van Metre's rezoning application for the property.” However, the contention that the Glascock Airport property will be used for a “hospice center”
it is contradicted by HCA Healthcare on their website, in which they say “HCA Virginia today announced plans to develop a new medical campus on 49 acres of land it has acquired on Route 50 in southern Loudoun County.
HCA Virginia’s 49-acre site is located at the intersection of Route 50 & Gum Spring Road, and adjacent to Glascock Field, an airplane landing strip.
The land is currently undeveloped & is already zoned for outpatient medical facility use. We plan to develop the property in 2 phases - first, by providing outpatient services, and later by building a hospital.”
Glascock Field is located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Route 50 & Gum Spring Road.
