The first step is to fill out a govt form? .
WOW


One step is to send the 7460-1 form to the FAA. Flight can't possibly happen unless the paperwork is in order.

The first step is to make sure the soil is sufficiently firm and well drained to support landing aircraft. In our case, we lucked out because the base is pretty much crumbled rock (saprolite, aka rotten granite). This gives us a firm well-drained base. You then want to establish a pretty good turf. In your case, you'll want a cold climate, high traffic grass like one of the Tall Fescue cultivars like Gazelle II. You're going to cut it as recommended for a lawn, 2 1/2-3"
We're in a warm climate, so we've got mostly Bermuda grass.

Google is your friend. Found a real nice document on turf runway constructions written by someone in Texas but I found it on a Montana state page...
