New Jerusalem Airport Building / Landmark in Curiosity and Satisfaction | World Anvil

New Jerusalem Airport

South of Town

  This small airport – really more an airfield - has two paved runways: East-West is 4,000 feet long and 100 feet wide; the instrument runway is 6500 feet long and 150 feet wide. Equipped with a full Instrument Landing System (ILS) and Approach Lighting. New Jerusalem Field is not equipped for night operation, as it lacks runway lights with enough intensity. Aviation fuels are available on site.   Aircraft maintenance and avionics installation are available from New Jerusalem Aero Systems. The airport has one emergency vehicle, equipped with a 300-gallon tank of fire-fighting foam and a 1-ton winch.   Provincetown-Boston Airlines makes twice daily runs into New Jerusalem: the first arrives at 9:45 am departing at 10:30 am; the second arrives at 3:30 pm and departs at 4:15 pm. The flight to Logan Airport takes little more then 30 minutes from gate to gate, and a maximum of 35 passengers are allowed on each flight.   About 10-15 private planes are kept here, as well as the University's two donated aircraft.
