Starting in late 2018, the ANNUAL ECONOMIC ANNUAL SPENDING ACTIVITY Minnesota Department of Transportation’s Office of Aeronautics studied 126 of these $13.8 B $18.2 B airports to measure their economic impact on the state economy. Throughout this document these 126 airports are referred to STUDY & MAC AIRPORTS as “study airports.” This map shows the geographic location for study and MAC airports. Economic impact results from studies conducted by the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC), for their seven airports in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul Metropolitan Area, are incorporated to provide a comprehensive summary of the annual economic impacts generated by all 133 public airports. Since a similar approach was used to estimate impacts for the MAC airports, the findings from the two separate efforts are combined to produce an overall statewide total, as shown in the table on this page.

  • Stanton Airfield News Grass Roots Flyer! May 2018
    Stanton Airfield News Grass Roots Flyer! May 2018 Airport Manager Report: Stanton Sport Aviation, Inc. held its annual stockholders meeting on Monday, April 30th. Reports from officers and committees were heard and elections were held for 3 board of director’s positions. Congratulations, welcome and thanks to new board members Tim Bjork and Bill Gacki for your willingness to contribute to the success of Stanton. And thanks to current President Phil Schmalz who agreed to be re-elected and continue to serve Stanton. (Left) Treasurer George Penokie giving the financial report. (Right) Left to right – Bill Gacki, Tim Bjork and Phil Schmalz. Thanks to the “Friends of Historic Carleton Airport”, new flooring has been installed in the front area of the building – now used as a large meeting room with office and display space. New window blinds have also been installed. Note that the original runway layout in the floor was maintained where it was. “A clean airplane is a happy airplane”. After the winter months of storage or non-use, now’s a great time to give it a thorough wash job as well as a thorough inspection. Cleaning allows a much better view of small imperfections or defects that may need to be dealt with. It’s also a good time to deal with grease, oil, fuel and air to ensure a safe flight. There’s an awareness campaign on “seeing motorcycles” on roadways that applies similarly to situational awareness in flying. In the airport environment it is critically important to “see” other aircraft in flight as well as “see” what’s on the runway and taxiway areas.
