Sossamon Field is a small private airstrip tucked into the mountains near Bryson City, North Carolina, at an elevation of 1,939 feet. It has a single hard-surfaced runway just over 2,100 feet long and currently carries no published radio service. Aeronautical records now list the field as unused, making it a curiosity rather than an active destination for visiting pilots.

Overview

Aeronautical data now records the field as unused, which makes it more of a historical or local interest stop for a simulator pilot than a live cross-country destination.
