KBTY is pretty close. The aircraft would be test configured so pretty light. Don't see a problem with that getting in and out of there doing test missions whatsoever. KTPH too. Neither are very busy this time of year so running tests there and not interfering with ops (like PHX, LAS etc) would be one the operations considerations of the test guys. Just some thoughts.
