Clinton County Airport (IATA: PLB, ICAO: KPLB, FAA LID: PLB) is a public airport located in the Town of Plattsburgh, three miles (5 km) west of the central business district (CBD) of Plattsburgh, a city in Clinton County, New York, USA. It serves Plattsburgh and the western side of Lake Champlain. This county-owned airport covers 990 acres (401 ha) and has two runways.
The airport is now closed and all traffic transferred to KPBG, the former Plattsburgh Air Force Base.
As per Federal Aviation Administration records, the airport had 1,712 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2004 and 1,747 enplanements in 2005. According to the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2007–2011, Clinton County is a general aviation airport because a commercial service classification requires at least 2,500 passenger boardings per year.
Clinton County transitioned to using the nearby Plattsburgh International Airport as the primary airport for the region on June 18, 2007, and Clinton Co. is now officially closed to itinerant aircraft, though it's still used for paradrops, and a few aircraft are still based there. Facilities
The primary instrument runway is runway 1-19. An instrument landing system is installed on the north-facing runway 1. Runway 1 is also equipped with a medium intensity approach lighting system. A VOR is located on the field and provides a non-precision instrument approach to runway 19. Both runway 1-19 and runway 14-32 are 5000 feet in length and 100 feet wide. The landing threshold to runway 19 is displaced 635 feet for landing due to trees north of the airport. A third runway oriented east-west existed during the 1980s, but it was abandoned.
