Hi there,

I found an excellent resource called AirNav, which has in-depth
information on US airports. After sifting through the listings, I
found the following Indiana grass airstrips which are UL friendly:

Larsh Airport, Colfax
http://www.airnav.com/airport/5L7

Hangar Fly Ultralight Club, Lawrence
http://www.airnav.com/airport/4II2

Action Airpark, Hardenstown
http://www.airnav.com/airport/I38

Gerig's Field Airport, Roanoke
http://www.airnav.com/airport/2IN2

Baird-Wolford Airport, Tipton
http://www.airnav.com/airport/2II6

Stuntz & Hochstetler Pines Airport, Walkerton
http://www.airnav.com/airport/59IN

A complete list of UL friendly airports in the USA can be found at
Friendly Fields, part of a defunct website, but viewable via the Web

All Indiana airports, as listed at AirNav:

While looking for the grass airstrips I found some other info that
might be of use to you - Indiana flight parks, UL clubs and a book.

There is a book on this topic - covers which airports permit
ultralight activity and which ones don't allow it:

Ultralight Vehicles: Access in the General Aviation Environment - A
Handbook for Ultralight Pilots (and Other Interested Folk)

A review of it is at UltraLight Homepage (scroll to the bottom):

Search Strategy:

I went straight to Google Directory and surfed from there:

clarifications you may require.
