The Municipal Authority
(The Zelienople Airport)
The Zelienople Municipal
Airport is a public general aviation facility owned by the Borough of
Zelienople and managed by the Zelienople Municipal Authority. It
covers about 240 acres.
Originally the site of a strip
mine, the land was rehabilitated as a private landing strip in the 1940's
and established as a public field in the 1950's. Because of its close
proximity to local industrial parks, particularly in Cranberry Twp., it is
experiencing considerable growth.
It provides facilities for
private aviation including hanger and tie-down space. It houses the
Condor Aero Flying Club which provides flight instruction, rental planes
and support for its membership. It houses the Experimental Aircraft
Association (EAA - Chapter 857) which builds and
maintains small aircraft and provides other diverse activities.
Pittsburgh Jet Center is the fixed-base operator who provides
maintenance, refueling and charter services.
