Martin County Airport (ICAO: KMCZ, FAA LID: MCZ) is a county-owned, public-use airport in Martin County, North Carolina, United States.[1] It is located six nautical miles (7 mi, 11 km) west of the central business district of Williamston, North Carolina.[1] This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[2]
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned MCZ by the FAA[1] but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned MCZ to Zumbi dos Palmares Airport in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil).[4] The airport's ICAO identifier is KMCZ.[5]
Martin County Airport covers an area of 110 acres (45 ha) at an elevation of 75 feet (23 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 3/21 with an asphalt surface measuring 5,000 by 75 feet (1,524 x 23 m).[1]
For the 12-month period ending May 30, 2021, the airport had 12,500 aircraft operations, an average of 34 per day: 96% general aviation and 4% military. At that time there were 14 aircraft based at this airport: 13 single-engine and 1 multi-engine.[1]
