Has anybody flown into Green Bank, WV to tour the radio astronomy

thanks in advance!

You would need to get permission. The systems are very noise sensitive
(i.e. radio noise from ignition systems - all vehicles on site are
diesel). It is a great site, friendly people who run it, etc. but doubt
they would welcome a plane unless timing was right for their observing.
