East Texas Regional Airport (IATA: GGG, ICAO: KGGG, FAA LID: GGG) is an airport located in Gregg County, Texas.[1] The airport is just South of the city of Lakeport, and is 9 mi (7.8 nmi; 14 km) south of Longview. Its IATA identifier GGG comes from its prior name, Gregg County Airport. The airport is used for general aviation and military training; it has scheduled flights to Dallas/Fort Worth on American Airlines/American Eagle.
Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 24,835 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,[2] 24,944 in 2009 and 21,830 in 2010.[3] The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a primary commercial service airport (more than 10,000 enplanements per year).[4]
East Texas Regional is home to LeTourneau University's School of Aeronautical Science. LeTourneau constitutes a very large portion of the airport's traffic and has a fleet of airplanes ranging from Cessna 172s to Citabrias and Piper PA-44 Seminoles. Most LeTourneau aircraft have tail numbers ending in "LU". All use the call sign "Jacket" (three letter- JKA).[5]
Each summer the airport hosts the Great Texas Balloon Race, a volunteer-run weekend event held annually since 1980.[6]
