Griffiss International Airport (IATA: RME, ICAO: KRME, FAA LID: RME) is a public airport located one mile (1.6 km) east of the central business district of Rome, a city in Oneida County, New York, United States. This airport is publicly owned by County of Oneida.[1] It is located on the former site of Griffiss Air Force Base, which closed in 1995. In 1999, the airfield hosted Woodstock '99.
Operations from the Oneida County Airport in Oriskany, New York, were transferred here in 2006, after which the county closed that airport in January 2007.
In December 2013, Griffiss International Airport was selected as a test site by the United States Federal Aviation Administration to "aid in researching the complexities of integrating Unmanned Aircraft Systems into the congested, northeast airspace." Students from the Rochester Institute of Technology will work with Griffiss to test drones at the airport.[2]
Griffiss is also a maintenance/storage facility for several regional airlines including Republic Airways, Envoy Airlines, and several more.
Several aircraft are stored here including: 2 Boeing 747-200s, 1 Boeing 767-200, and 1 Boeing 777-200.
