The "new" Yucca Lake air strip in the NNSS, east of Yucca Lake (see attached) is known for secret drone testing. But there is also the old Yucca air strip from the atomic days on the west side of Yucca Lake. Its FAA designation was NV11. It appears that designation has now been removed from the FAA database and from air charts.

The strip can be seen in the last photo in the attached link on the far end of the lake bed near the road. It appears abandoned.

The nearby Pahute and Desert Rock strips, also inside the NNSS, are still listed in the FAA database.
