Sheridan County Airport is a county owned, public use airport in Sheridan County, Wyoming, United States. It is located two nautical miles (4 km) southwest of the central business district of Sheridan, Wyoming.〔 The airport is mainly used for general aviation. No commercial carriers serve Sheridan. Service was subsidized by the Essential Air Service program until February 2007, when Big Sky Airlines began providing subsidy free service〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Order 2006-10-19 )〕 (suspended in January 2008).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Order 2007-12-27 )〕 When Big Sky ceased operations, Great Lakes reassumed flights to Sheridan, still unsubsidized. Great Lakes ceased operating to Sheridan in spring 2015 as part of an effort to standardize their fleet on 30 seat aircraft. Many Sheridan residents were confused regarding the lack of replacement service, believing that service to Sheridan was still subsidized under Essential Air Service. Federal law had been changed in 2012 so that once Sheridan County had left the EAS program, it could not re-enter it and any future commercial air service to Sheridan will be not be funded by EAS.〔Blair, Pat. (Airport Manager Clarifies What Happened to EAS ), ''Sheridan Media'', May 4, 2015, Retrieved 2015-05-07〕 As per Federal Aviation Administration records, the airport had 17,710 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,〔 〕 14,181 enplanements in 2009, and 14,146 in 2010.〔 〕 It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''primary commercial service'' airport (more than 10,000 enplanements per year).〔 〕 == Facilities and aircraft == Sheridan County Airport covers an area of 1,550 acres (627 ha) at an elevation of 4,021 feet (1,226 m) above mean sea level.
