Stennis International Airport is located on the eastern rim of Stennis Space Center’s 125,000 acre and is only 12 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico. Our strategic location provides the optimal condition for various aircraft testing and training that would otherwise be unfavorable to encumbered airports. In addition, Stennis International Airport is rapidly expanding with the 12,000SF Corporate Hangar, the 26,000SF Restore Hangar, and a 100,000SF hangar with thousands of square feet more to grow. Currently, we are working to establish a flight simulated training center at Stennis International Airport which will allow military personnel to train with simulation catered to their aircraft.
