Facilities and Services
General: Purdue Airport

The management of the airport is responsible for the provision of a safe and efficient base of operations for those who provide air transportation services to the University and the Lafayette-West Lafayette community.

The airport covers nearly 500 acres of land with two paved and lighted runways: one northeast-southwest runway 4,230 feet long; and one east-west runway 6,600 feet long. There are 16 buildings, all of which are used to support commercial or educational aviation activities.

Services include aviation fuels, flight instruction, air taxi service, and aircraft sales and servicing.

The Federal Aviation Administration operates an air traffic control tower and a maintenance unit at the airport.
