Indianapolis Regional Airport is a public use airport in Hancock County, Indiana, United States. Owned by Indianapolis Airport Authority, it is 12 nautical miles (22 km) east of the central business district of Indianapolis. The airport is also 7NM northwest of Greenfield[3] and 3NM southwest of McCordsville.[4] It was known as Mount Comfort Airport until March 2011.[5]
This facility is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021, which categorized it as a general aviation reliever airport[6] for Indianapolis International Airport. Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Indianapolis Regional Airport is assigned MQJ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA[7] (which assigned MQJ to Moma Airport in Khonuu, Russia).[8]
Indianapolis Regional Airport covers an area of 1,805 acres (730 ha) at an elevation of 862 feet (263 m) above mean sea level. It has two runways: 7/25 with a 6005by asphalt surface and 16/34 with a 3902by concrete surface.
For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2019, the airport had 47,648 aircraft operations, an average of 130 per day: 84% general aviation and 16% air taxi. In December 2019, there were 150 aircraft based at this airport: 115 single-engine, 14 multi-engine, 19 jet, 1 helicopter and 1 ultralight.
