Not military (anymore), but Salina Kansas airport is 13337 ft long.
Used to be Schilling AFB, rumor has it the runway was extended to
support B-70 ops until the program was canceled and the base was
closed and turned over to the city.


I think you'll find the runway was lengthened to better accommodate the B-52
and KC-135 that were scheduled to replace the B-47 and KC-97 at Schilling.
