}}Foley Municipal Airport {{airport codes|||5R4}} is a city-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles (4 mi, 6 km) northwest of the central business district of Foley, a city in Baldwin County, Alabama, United States.[1]

The Fixed Base Operator at Foley Airport is Lightning Aviation. Lightning Aviation was founded in 2010 by retired Army helicopter pilot, Roger Watkins. Since then, the company has trained hundreds of Navy and Marine pilots and Naval Flight Officers (NFOs) for the Navy's [https://ifs.prod.voled.training.navy.mil/ifs/faces/anonymous/faq.jspx Introduction to Flight Screening (IFS) Program].

In addition to training the Navy, Lightning Aviation also offers pilot training to civilians seeking their private, instrument, commercial, and multi-engine certificates and ratings.

Lightning Aviation operates and maintains a fleet of 16 Cessnas and Piper aircraft. They also offer maintenance services to the aircraft hangared at the field and anyone else in the area needing work on their plane.

This airport is included in the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015[2] and 2009–2013,[3] both of which categorized it as a general aviation facility.
