}}Madras Municipal Airport {{airport codes|MDJ||S33}}, formerly City-County Airport, is a public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district of Madras, a city in Jefferson County, Oregon, United States.[1] According to the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009–2013, it is classified as a general aviation airport.[2]

History

Originally known as Madras Army Air Field, this was a World War II Army Air Corps training base for B-17 Flying Fortress and Bell P-63 Kingcobras. In 2000, the airport began hosting the annual Airshow of the Cascades.[3] The Erickson Aircraft Collection moved from the Tillamook Air Museum to the Madras Airport in 2014.[4] In mid-2015 the airport's north hangar, which was built during World War II, was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[5]
