Braden Airpark (FAA LID: N43), also known as Easton Airport, is a small airport located about three nautical miles north of the central business district of Easton, Pennsylvania. The airport is owned by the Lehigh-Northampton Airport Authority, which also owns Lehigh Valley International Airport and Allentown Queen City Municipal Airport.
History
[edit]On June 6, 2017, a $325,000 county grant was approved to replace the aging terminal, which was matched by funds from Lehigh-Northampton Airport Authority (LNAA). A modular building is planned to serve as the terminal while long-term plans are developed for the airport.[2]
Facilities and aircraft
[edit]This airport predominantly serves small general aviation aircraft. The single 18/36 runway is 1956 feet long and has a 50-foot wide asphalt surface in the center of a 165-foot wide turf strip.[3] No commercial airlines serve the airport.
