Jack Barstow Airport〔〔 , also known as Jack Barstow Municipal Airport,〔 is a city owned, public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district of Midland, a city in Midland County, Michigan, United States.〔It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''general aviation'' airport. The airport is named after local pilot John "Jack" Barstow, who learned aviation skills from Orville Wright and taught Charles Lindberg about flying gliders.

A local chapter of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) is located at Barstow Airport. Through the EAA’s Young Eagles program, annual aviation camps are held at the airport to educate youth.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Jack Barstow Municipal Airport )〕 Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this facility is assigned IKW by the FAA〔 but has no designation from the IATA.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Jack Barstow Airport (ICAO: KIKW, FAA: IKW) )〕 == Facilities and aircraft == The airport covers an area of 512 acres (207 ha) at an elevation of 635 feet (194 m) above mean sea level.
