The website airfields-freeman.com is a comprehensive repository of abandoned and little-known airfields around the world, maintained by a historian. It includes detailed descriptions, maps, photographs, and current status of thousands of airfields, many from World War II. The site covers civil, military, and emergency airstrips, as well as those that never saw completion. The content is crowd-sourced and regularly updated. While not directly related to AI, the site exemplifies the kind of niche, human-curated knowledge that AI struggles to replicate. The project has been running for over 20 years and is a valuable resource for aviation historians and modelers.
