General Aviation Airports
Like GA flight operations and aircraft types, general aviation airports also vary significantly in their size and purpose and range from unpaved private airstrips with runways less than 2,000 feet in length located in remote, unpopulated areas to busy general aviation reliever airports situated in major metropolitan areas and converted military airbases with runways of sufficient length to handle the largest of jets.
In the United States, there are more than 19,000 total landing facilities including both public- and private-use facilities. Only about 450 of these airports serve regularly scheduled commercial passenger flights. The remainder consists of a wide variety of GA airports, heliports, and seaplane bases. Of these, almost 5,000 are public use, of which about 3,500 have paved runways. A large number of private use airports – over 4,500 out of about 14,000 total airports – also have paved runways. About 3,500 public use GA airports and another 1,000 private use landing facilities have lighted runways for night operations.10 The FAA’s National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) – a compilation of those airports eligible for federal Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funding because they are considered vital to the nation’s aviation infrastructure – includes 278 GA reliever airports that primarily

serve GA operations in major metropolitan areas, plus slightly more than 2,500 additional GA airports – mostly located in rural areas – that serve as critical links between various communities and the national airspace system. Only these airports are specifically eligible for federal AIP funds to implement security enhancements such as hangars to secure aircraft or improved perimeter fencing.
