Sharpe Field (IATA: TGE, FAA LID: AL73) is a closed private use airport located six nautical miles (11 km; 6.9 mi) northwest of the central business district of Tuskegee, a city in Macon County, Alabama, United States.

A graded (but not yet paved) portion of the north–south runway was used to conduct initial flight training.

[4] The March 1943 14M Regional Aeronautical Chart labeled the airfield as "Tuskegee Army Flying School" and indicated that the field had a control tower.

[3] The 99th Pursuit Squadron moved to Tuskegee from Maxwell Field, Alabama on 5 January 1942.

[3] Five of the aviation cadets at Tuskegee entered advanced flying training with P-40 Warhawks in January 1942.

Benjamin O. Davis, Jr. and second lieutenants George S. Roberts, Charles H. DeBow, Jr., Mac Ross, and Lemuel R. Custis.

The second class 42-D-SE consisting of three African-American pilots, Charles Dryden, Sydney Brooks, and Clarence Jamerson graduated as second lieutenants from flying training on 29 April.

By the end of 1942, nine classes of African-American pilots had completed training at Tuskegee AAF.

As constructed during World War II, Tuskegee AAF consisted of four asphalt runways (the longest being 5,200'), taxiways, a ramp, and a large number of buildings north of the field.

The purpose of the airfield having been reactivated is unknown, although the old ramp area was used as an asphalt plant for a number of years.

Sharpe Field covers an area of 2,600 acres (1,100 ha) at an elevation of 253 feet (77 m) above mean sea level.
