General:

The Hereford Municipal Airport is owned and operated by the City of Hereford under the direction of the airport director, Teresa Lyons.  The airport has sufficient runway to accommodate business jets and most all other private aircraft.  The airport is an integral part of the economic development of the City.

 

 

Information about the Airport:

The FBO (Fixed Base Operator, i.e. terminal)  on the airport is open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, but has free 24 hour call outs.  Two pilot lounges, one meeting room, a kitchenette, a TV, and a computer with internet connection for checking e-mail or the weather are all available within the FBO.  The FBO also sells pilot charts and oil.  Courtesy cars and rentals are available by reservation.

 

Hangars are available for rent.  The price is $75 per month, which includes all taxes and electricity.  Tie-downs and hangars are also available for transient traffic.  The first night is free with the purchase of fuel.  The second and subsequent nights are $5 for tie-downs and $10 for hangars.
