Marco Island Executive Airport , also known as Marco Island Airport, is a public airport located in the city of Naples in Collier County, Florida, four miles (6 km) northeast of the central business district of Marco Island. This airport is publicly owned by Collier County.〔〔 The Marco Island Executive Airport is conveniently located to Naples, Marco Island, Goodland and Isles of Capri. It provides affordable, convenient, safe hassle-free air travel. Situated in a natural environment, the airport is congestion and traffic free, yet only minutes away from the area's amenities and attractions. The airport was initially designed to compliment plans of creating a resort area south of Naples. Immediately following completion in 1976, the airport was primarily used as a marketing tool to help sell Marco Island lots. Developers would fly prospective Marco Island homeowners and investors over from Miami. Eventually the developers turned the airport over to the state of Florida, and in the 1980s the state, in turn, leased it directly to the county. Recognizing that the airport represents a community asset, the county had the foresight to maintain the airport, and in 1993, the Collier County Airport Authority was created to develop and manage the Marco Island Executive Airport. Today, the airport represents a community asset, with travelers from all over the world making their way to this general aviation airport just north of Marco Island. Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Marco Island Airport is assigned MKY by the FAA and MRK by the IATA (which assigned MKY to Mackay Airport in Mackay, Queensland, Australia). The airport's ICAO identifier is KMKY. 〔(Great Circle Mapper: MRK / KMKY - Marco Island, Florida )〕 〔(Great Circle Mapper: MKY / YBMK - Mackay, Queensland, Australia )〕 ==Facilities and aircraft== Marco Island Airport covers an area of and contains one asphalt runway (17/35): 5,000 x 100 ft (1,524 x 30 m).〔 For 12-month period ending December 31, 2013 the airport had 20,000 aircraft operations, an average of 55 per day: 99% general aviation (19,800) and 1% military (200). There are 36 aircraft based at this airport: 83% single engine (30), 8% multi engine (3), 6% jet aircraft (2) and 3% helicopters (1).〔 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「Marco Island Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
