Default Airport Runways and Wind Turbines

I just dug out one of our maps from the Wisconsin DOT regarding one of their
easements on our property. Off each end of each runway there are clear zone
easements with a slope of 20:1 that extend a distance of 637 off one runway
and a distance of 1500' of the other end of the runway. Beyond that there
is an "avigation" easement with a slope of 34:1 that extends 1600' beyond
the clear zone easement on the approach end of the only runway with an
instrument approach at this airport.

The easements that the DOT "purchased" from us covered an area from 10 ft
above to 50 ft above the ground over 13.86 acres. After negotiations, they
paid us $5000 for the easement, the land itself later sold in 2003 for
$42,000. I also found a little brochure that the State of Wisconsin
provided that points to this site:

Thanks a lot!

A 1/20 grade from the end of the runway for 5000 feet. Looks like 200

feet
might fly.

|A runway for a small town airport is .8 miles long. What
is the regulation
| for maximum height of a structure .9 miles beyond the end
of the runway?
| Given a cessna 170b, for example, the plane could travel
that .9 miles in as
| little as a half a minute. A max rate of climb of 660fpm
would give it 330
| ft of elevation. What is the possibility of building a
tower or wind

Non-precision is 34:1.
ILS is 50:1.
