A flight strip as originally conceived and planned by Lieut. Col. Stedman Shumway Hanks is a flat area of land not less than 200 feet in width than 1,800 feet in length with clear approaches located adjacent to highway but is a part of the highway right-of-way itself. Under the a flight strip automatically becomes the responsibility of the state highway departments; any state laws relative to flight strips should be conceived as part of the existing highway and motor vehicle laws. The object of providing a system of flight strips throughout the country is to make available great numbers of small conveniently located landing areas which could be used as an auxiliary landing area near an airport, as an emergency landing area between airports, as an auxiliary field for the Airforce of the United States Army Corps in an emergency, or as an aid the private flyer.
