Prospect State Airport - Apron Reconstruction Starting 10/13

The apron at the Prospect State Airport will be closed for approximately 2 weeks for reconstruction, starting 6am Monday October 13th.

The runway was fully reconstructed earlier this summer, and now the apron will be fully repaved this month. Along with new pavement, this project will include new tiedowns and markings.

The brand new runway and apron, which were over 60 years old, will continue to serve the local community and southern cascade region for commerce, recreation, and critical aerial firefighting. With all new electrical equipment including runway lighting, beacon, and a lighted windsock, the Prospect State Airport will continue to provide a safe alternative landing place for aircraft flying over the mountains.

The apron reconstruction project is funded by the Oregon Department of Aviation's State Owned Airport Reserve (SOAR) fund, from its Aviation System Action Program (ASAP).

The apron will be closed for approximately 2 weeks* starting 6am October 13th. 

*Reopening dates and times are subject to change, additional information will be shared as soon as it is available. 

(!) When the apron is closed, there will be no aircraft parking available at Prospect until the apron reopens.

(!!) The runway will remain open for touch and goes, and emergency landings only.   

(!!!) Please check NOTAMs for closure times and the most current airport surface closures. 

Thank you for your patience while we maintain the Prospect State Airport.
