4 NM radius up to 8000 MSL. Pretty small "airspace" for anything fast or jumbo. Tethered balloon or scale model RC models would fit. Or as teaufler suggested, old and (relatively) slow. Also VTOL and helos doing touch-and-go practice wouldn't need more than a big parking lot.

I called Gila Aux Tower, and they weren't much help
.
Perhaps someone can call 56 RMO AIRSPACE MANAGEMENT, PHONE
623-856-5855.
