Straddling both the Bradford and Clay Counties in North Central Florida is the Keystone Heights Airport. Located in Starke, just 3 miles North West of Keystone Heights, Keystone Airport is situated 50 miles southwest of JAX International and 28 miles northeast of Gainesville Regional Airport. Keystone Airport serves the general aviation community. The area comprises 2,505 acres, with 297 acres zoned for an industrial business park. The AWOS System is installed and fully operational.
Several new projects include the installation of a 10,000 gallon Avgas and 12,000 gallon Jet A fuel farm, the purchase of a 2,200 gallon Jet fuel truck, the lighting of Runway 10/28 with MIRLS, PAPIS, HIRLS, and threshold lights. New airfield signage and an AWOS IIIT are to be installed by February 2005.
We currently have three 10-unit T-hangars and bulk storage and we are planning the construction of another 10-unit T-hangar in the near future. Our FBO terminal building includes a pilot lounge, flight planning area, restroom with showers, vending machines and a conference room.
The Keystone Heights Airport has an approved aerobatic box. It is not uncommon to see both world and national champions and students using the box at any given time.
Stop by for a cup of coffee, we look forward to serving you!
