Rugby Municipal Airport (ICAO: KRUG, FAA LID: RUG) is a public use airport located two nautical miles (4 km) northwest of the central business district of Rugby, a city in Pierce County, North Dakota, United States. It is owned by the Rugby Airport Authority.[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 many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned RUG by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned RUG to Rugao Air Base in Rugao, China).[4][5]
Rugby Municipal Airport covers an area of 280 acres (113 ha) at an elevation of 1,549 feet (472 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 12/30 with an asphalt surface measuring 3,600 by 60 feet (1,097 x 18 m).[1]
For the 12-month period ending June 3, 2021, the airport had 4,250 aircraft operations, an average of 81 per week: 92% general aviation, 7% air taxi, and 1% military. At that time there were 12 aircraft based at this airport: 11 single-engine, and 1 multi-engine.[1]
