With the need for additional general aviation capacity well documented with November’s Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix and February’s Super Bowl, airport planners are looking to lengthen runways at Henderson Executive Airport and North Las Vegas Airport to enable larger aircraft to land there.
The Clark County Department of Aviation is addressing needs at the two secondary airports as the best choices for general aviation, the small business jets and propeller-driven planes frequently used for corporate operations.
A master plan for Henderson Executive Airport was completed two years ago and the county paved additional parking aprons for planes in time for the two recent major sporting events.
