Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport (ICAO: KBUY, FAA LID: BUY) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) southwest of the central business district (CBD) of Burlington, a city in Alamance County, North Carolina, USA. This general aviation airport covers 340 acres (138 ha) and has one runway.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport is assigned BUY by the FAA and has no designation from the IATA (which assigned BUY to Bunbury, Western Australia, Australia). The airport's ICAO identifier is KBUY.
Burlington-Alamance is a small airport, serving small planes like Cessnas and rebuilt Mustangs. It also has a pilot training school. There is no charge for landing or taking off at the airport; it makes money through the sale of fuel, and hangar space.
On September 18, 2008, it was announced that the one runway at Burlington-Alamance, runway 6/24, will be extended from 5,000 feet to 6,400 feet. The main reason for the runway extension is to connect the airport to the new Honda Aero headquarters and manufacturing plant. Construction should be complete in 2010 or 2011.
