Blair Executive Airport, formerly the Blair Municipal Airport, is about 7mile south of Blair, Nebraska, a city in Washington County, Nebraska.
The original Blair Municipal Airport north of Blair opened between 1938 and 1941. In 1996 the city of Blair purchased the privately owned Eagle Airfield which became the site of the present Blair Municipal Airport.[2] Eagle Airfield was renamed, and extensive construction replaced the original narrow runway, removed a grass cross-runway, and added new tarmacs and hangars.[2] The original airport location was demolished and turned into a golf course by 1999.[3]
The Omaha Police Department's Air Support Unit began operating out of the airport in June 2019, moving from the North Omaha Airport.[4]
The airport's official description was changed from 'municipal' to 'executive' by the Blair Airport Authority in 2022 for marketing purposes.[5]
The airport is at an elevation of . It has one concrete runway: 13/31 is, as well as a grass strip for glider operations. The airport had an average of 42 operations per day in the year ending May 2018. 64 aircraft were then based at this airport.
