I had the opportunity several years ago to land at the NAS-Joint Reserve
Base in Fort Worth, TX. I had to sign all sorts of paperwork. But
arriving on final to land and 4 F-16s are waiting to takeoff - priceless.

You are not permitted to land at a military only airfield without proof of
insurance and a "hold harmless" waiver. Also, you need advanced permission
regarding the exact time you expect to land, as well as the purpose of your
visit. You should also contact the security forces and tell them that you
are landing, as well as the base command post and the airport manager.
Sometimes the communications could be better between these groups.

There will not be any services available, such as gas, computer access, etc,
nor will you probably be allowed to enter any buildings.

Likely, you will not be granted permission unless you have some official
business. If there is live ordinance loaded on the planes on the ramp or the
mission involves nuclear alert, don't even bother to try asking. In some of
these situations the security forces are authorized the use of deadly force
to protect our assets.

I've been trying for a while to fly to our Air Guard ramp (where I am a
member), which is co located on a civilian airport, and so far have not had
much luck. The paperwork and other restrictions make it so restrictive as to
be non viable.
