}}George M. Bryan Airport[1][2] {{airport codes||KSTF|STF}} is a public use airport in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, United States.[1] It is owned by the City of Starkville and located three nautical miles (6 km) southwest of its central business district.[1] This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[3]

Also known as Starkville / Oktibbeha County Airport or George M. Bryan Field,[4] the airport was named in honor of World War II veteran and Starkville native George Martin Bryan.[5]

Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned STF by the FAA[1] but has no designation from the IATA[6] (which assigned STF to Stephens Island in Queensland, Australia).[7]

History

Opened in 1934 as Starkville Municipal Airport. During World War II the airport was taken over abruptly by the government to be used as a glider training base (Starkville AF Auxiliary Field). Plans for the AAF Basic Training Detachment were for 150 students using the TG-5 gliders. The gliders were towed by the BT-13 Vultee "Vibrator". Students lived in the dormitories at Mississippi State College, where they also used its classrooms and dining facilities.
