[edit] Facilities and aircraft
Indiana County-Jimmy Stewart Airport covers an area of 276 acres (112 ha) and contains one asphalt paved runway designated 10/28 which measures 4,001 x 75 ft (1,220 x 23 m). The runway is outfitted with medium intensity runway lighting (MIRL). The airport is equipped with three nonprecision approaches (LOC RWY 28, GPS 10, GPS 28).[1]
For the 12-month period ending March 31, 2007, the airport had 26,100 aircraft operations, an average of 71 per day: 95% general aviation, 3% military and 2% air taxi. There are 45 aircraft based at this airport: 89% single-engine, 9% multi-engine and 2% ultralight.[1]
The Indiana County Airport Authority has received approval and funding for the construction of a new runway. The new runway will measure 5500 X 100 feet (compared to the existing runway which is 4000 X 75 feet) and will enable the installation of a precision Instrument Landing System (ILS) and allow corporate aircraft the required landing distance for safety. The old runway will be used as a parallel taxiway.
