Challis Airport (IATA: CHL, ICAO: KLLJ, FAA LID: LLJ) is a city-owned public-use airport located one mile (2 km) northeast of the central business district of Challis, a city in Custer County, Idaho, United States.[1]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Challis Airport is assigned LLJ by the FAA and CHL by the IATA (which assigned LLJ to Lalmonirhat, Bangladesh).[2][3]

Facilities and aircraft

Challis Airport covers an area of 149 acres (60 ha) which contains one asphalt paved runway (16/34) measuring 4,600 x 60 ft (1,402 x 18 m). For the 12-month period ending May 22, 2006, the airport had 16,350 aircraft operations, an average of 44 per day: 65% general aviation, 34% air taxi and 1% military.[1]
