Hutchinson Municipal Airport (IATA: HUT, ICAO: KHUT, FAA LID: HUT) is a city-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) east of the central business district of Hutchinson, a city in Reno County, Kansas, United States.[1]
Facilities and aircraft [edit]
Hutchinson Municipal Airport covers an area of 1,597 acres (646 ha) at an elevation of 1,543 feet (470 m) above mean sea level. It has three asphalt paved runways: 13/31 is 7,004 by 100 feet (2,135 x 30 m); 4/22 is 6,000 by 100 feet (1,829 x 30 m); and 17/35 is 4,252 by 75 feet (1,296 x 23 m).[1]
For the 12-month period ending December 31st, 2010, the airport had 40,850 aircraft operations, an average of 120 per day: 88% general aviation, 7% military and 5% air taxi, At that time there were 33 aircraft based at this airport: 71% single-engine, 21% multi-engine, 5% jet and 3% helicopter.[1]
While there is no commercial carrier at Hutchinson at this time, Commuter carrier Air Midwest served the community with Beechcraft 1900 turboprops until 1990. Efforts to resume airline service in recent years have failed, largely because of the proximity to Kansas' busiest airport in Wichita.
