The Saline County Regional Airport, located on a 1,200-acre site just southeast of Bryant, opened in early 2007. Amongh its many offerings:

  • a 5,002-foot runway
  • a full parallel taxiway
  • apron tie-down space for 30 aircraft
  • three 12-bay T-hangers
  • fueling facilities and associated parking
  • space for corporate, private and additional T-hanger development

The facility can handle aircraft ranging from small private planes up through most large corporate jets. Presently, the Regional Airport has one non-precision instrument approach procedure, a Localizer with Distance Measuring Equipment approach to Runway 2. The completion of a full instrument landing system is programmed for October 2009. Future plans include the construction of multiple aircraft hangars to accommodate large transient aircraft and a permanent terminal facility with all of the amenities expected by the business and leisure traveler.
