Kent State University Airport (FAA LID: 1G3) is a public airport in Stow, Ohio, United States owned by Kent State University. The airport is located along State Route 59 (Kent Road) approximately three miles (5 km) west of the central business district of Kent.[1]
Besides being a public airport, the Kent State University Airport is used by the College of Aeronautics and Engineering for its in-house Aeronautics program, which provides flight training and other professional aeronautical training, including Air Traffic Control, Airport Management studies, and air mobility, to enrolled Kent State University students. The airport also operates a Flight Clinic for the general public who are interested in attaining private pilot instruction. Kent State had a leading Pilot Training Bridge Program with United Express designed to help highly skilled and qualified students migrate as a pilot into the airline industry.[3]
In early 2019, the airport received a 5 million dollar grant from FedEx for expansion, including the creation of a new aeronautics center.[4][5]
The airport was named Ohio's Airport of the Year in 2017 by the Ohio Aviation Association. The airport was commended for promoting aviation by providing access and availability to the exchange of ideas and new methods as well as information and experiences.[6]
