Delphi Municipal Airport is a thriving, growing
facility serving the city of Delphi, Indiana and surrounding
areas including Carroll County, Lafayette/W. Lafayette - home
of Purdue University, and the Indiana Beach resort area of
Monticello. First developed in 1969, this local General Aviation
airport came about through the inspiration of local businessmen
and farmers who understood the importance of air transportation
to rural areas and growing small town communities. In the
early 1980s the Delphi Board of Aviation Commissioners began
boosting visibility of the airport in the public eye, and
by the end of the 20th century with the help of Airport Entitlement
funding, began making needed improvements. Today new, up-to-date
runway lighting guides pilots to the runway - to be lengthened
to a minimum 4,000 feet in the near future - where they can
refuel at credit card capable aviation approved auto fuel
and 100LL avgas pumps. With professional aviation design engineer
Ken Ross, New Generation Consulting, on board, further improvements
- for example additional hangar space, instrument guided landing
and takeoff ability - will continue to grow the airport for
the future. |

For
a brief respite the administration building is always available
with a beverage machine, restroom and comfortable chairs.
With advance notice by calling (765) 564-9658, ground transportation
by loaner car or a narrated Trolley tour can be provided to
historic Delphi. The local attractions of Delphi including
the Wabash & Erie Canal Park, historic hiking biking trails,
quaint restaurants - the Stone House on Main St. was once
a bordello - are ideal for fly-in visitors whether on business
or pleasure. |
