The feature includes 13 photos from a private collection.As many will know, that was also the same trip in which The Beatles landed at the Walnut Ridge Airport. Apparently, our airport was the only one large enough to land their plane. Late on a Friday night, the Beatles flew from Dallas to Walnut Ridge, and from here The Beatles flew in a twin engine Cessna to a ranch in Alton, Mo., where they would relax for the weekend during their second U.S. tour.
