This is a new and improved version of the original Maguire Airport video. It contains shots of the abandoned Maguire Airport in Ocoee, FL. This new video contains some aerial shots of the airport and some Google Earth images showing the airport being erased from the face of the earth by new development until all trace of it is gone. This small country airport was located 12nm due west of Orlando Executive Airport (ORL) at 2600 S Maguire Road in Ocoee, FL It was surrounded by orange groves. The video was shot in 1990 before the airport disappeared completely and now there is nary a trace to be found. The land is now occupied by the Plantation Grove Shopping Center and surrounded by homes. The airport had a north/south 2,400 ft. turf runway, Runway 36/18. Some of my best flying days were spent at this airport under the watchful eye of Harold Maguire. FTHVN #53
