Columbia Regional Airport is a city owned, public use airport located 10 nautical miles (12 mi, 19 km) southeast of the central business district of Columbia, a city in Boone County, Missouri, United States.〔 The airport is served by one commercial airline and also provides general aviation services. Airport officials have created a plan to extend the 6,500 foot runway, and to construct a new terminal. The runway will be extended first, with the terminal reconstruction to take place two years later. This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''primary commercial service'' airport.〔 〕 As per Federal Aviation Administration records, the airport had 12,719 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,〔 〕 26,842 enplanements in 2009, and 38,293 in 2010.〔 〕 Scheduled passenger service was subsidized by the U.S. Department of Transportation via the Essential Air Service program until 2010, when Delta Air Lines began providing subsidy-free service. == Facilities and aircraft == Columbia Regional Airport covers an area of 1,538 acres (622 ha) at an elevation of 889 feet (271 m) above mean sea level. It has two runways: 2/20 is 6,501 by 150 feet (1,982 x 46 m) with a concrete surface; 13/31 is 4,401 by 75 feet (1,341 x 23 m) with an asphalt surface.〔 For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2010, the airport had 25,717 aircraft operations, an average of 70 per day: 79% general aviation, 10% military, 9% scheduled commercial, and 2% air taxi. At that time there were 41 aircraft based at this airport: 44% single-engine, 24% multi-engine, 27% jet, and 5% helicopter.〔 The 2013 Federal sequester will result in the closure of the airport's contract control tower and will require pilots to rely on air traffic controllers from other area airports.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 FAA Contract Tower Closure List )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Columbia Regional Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
