Moose, the after-hours access varies from airport to airport. Here, there are enough floodlights to allow a pilot to choose a parking spot, and an assortment of chocks and tie-down ropes.

This flight was with a flight service headquartered there. One of the owners was aboard. I imagine the pilot then drove over to their hangar to "garage" it after dropping us off.

For "regulars", there is an access code to allow them into the building.  Scheduled freight flights are met by airport personnel who can provide fork-lift support if necessary.  Many corporate flights call ahead to arrange for rental cars, etc.

Runway lights are activated by Mic Clicks, and remain on for 15 minutes.

I somehow doubt there was such a thing there, about 40 years ago. :-)
