Alliance, NE

Overview 

Alliance Nebraska is a unique destination to say the least.  If you’re down for a160nm flight (from Denver metro area) just to see a cheesy roadside attraction, then this flight’s for you!  


Flight itself is straightforward with no terrain, obstacles, nor complicated airspace to deal with.  Alliance is non-towered, but does have 2 daily flights to KDEN by Denver Air Connection, so be on the lookout for the occasional fast moving traffic.  Airline schedule:  https://www.flyalliancene.com
