The city of Mielec (64 000 inhabitants) located in a very densely populated western part of Podkarpacie and eastern Małopolska and Świętokrzyskie (an agglomeration Tarnobrzeg- Sandomierz- Stalowa Wola of approx. 200 000 inhabitants, 30 kilometers to the north, town of Tarnów, 120 000 inhabitants, 50 kilometres to the west), has a former military and industrial airport managed by the company PZL Cargo, that during the renovation of the runway of Rzeszów airport in December 2004 was intended to be used as a replacement for the runway at Rzeszów-Jasionka Airport. It offers an APV-I instrument approach and an aviation fuel station.[2] Experts estimate that it could handle even large aircraft. Its location offers a chance to serve the parts of Świętokrzyskie and Małoposlska regions, that are otherwise not covered by other airports.

History

The airport opened in 1938.

Airport infrastructure

There exists a railroad line next to the terminal that can be used for passenger service or industry. Airport offers an APV-I instrument approach and an aviation fuel station[3] with avgas and Jet A-1 type fuels.
