$Bishop Airport (KBIH),Bishop California, USA, May 8, 2014. United States Marine Corps Osprey MV-22 Aircraft from Marine Squadrons, VMM-161 and VMM-162 perform high altitude landing and launching training.\n\nBishop Airport, (KBIH) was built in 1928 and expanded and operated by the Army Air Corps during WWII. During the war it was used as a military flight training base and boasted a chow hall and barracks for pilots during training. Because of its strategic location east of the 12,000 foot tall Sierra Nevada Mountain range Bishop would be used as a Fall Back Base in the event the Japanese military attacked the California coast. \n \nToday the airport has multiple modern navigational aids and is used by civilian aircraft and all branches of the US military for training and fuel stops. Bishop has a military fuel contract which allows any military aircraft to purchase fuel. Because of its close proximity to the Marine Corps High Altitude Training Facility at Pickle Meadows, Bishop is a vital fuel stop. Aircraft leave their bases on the California coast fully laden with troops and after depositing them at Pickle Meadows stop at Bishop for fuel. \n\n Aircraft perform differently at higher altitudes than at sea level. Performance is affected by altitude, weight and available power. Fuel, cargo and passenger loads must be calculated based on altitude, weight and aircraft power. On a 100 degree day at Bishop's 4,200 foot elevation an aircraft will perform as though it was launching from an airport located 8,000 feet above sea level. This phenomena is known as Density Altitude. During workups for deployment to Afghanistan military air units practice in and around the Bishop area because of the high elevation of the airport, sparse population and similarity of terrain.
