Catalina Airport

Catalina Airport is a privately owned airport located six miles (10 km) northwest of the central business district of Avalon, California〔 in the middle of Catalina Island. The airport is open to the public and allows general aviation aircraft to land there. The only requirement is that inbound pilots state their intention to land and that they pay a $25 landing fee.〔http://catalina.com/the-airport-in-the-sky/〕 The airport is primarily used for general aviation. The airport is also used for airfreight from the mainland. Supplies for the island are delivered via Douglas DC-3 aircraft daily.
