Goshen Municipal Airport (IATA: GSH[2], ICAO: KGSH, FAA LID: GSH) is a public-use civil airport three miles southeast of Goshen, in Elkhart County, Indiana. It is owned by the Goshen Board of Aviation Commissioners.[1] The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 categorized it as a general aviation facility.[3]
The airport is host to America's Freedom Fest, which advertises itself as among the country's biggest single-day airshows.[4]
Facilities
The airport covers 439 acres (178 ha) at an elevation of 827 feet (252 m). It has two runways: 9/27 is 6,050 by 100 feet (1,844 x 30 m) asphalt and 5/23 is 2,497 by 180 feet (761 x 55 m) turf.[1]
For the 12-month period ending December 21, 2019, the airport averaged 59 aircraft movements per day, or roughly 21,535 per year. The operations are 97% general aviation and 3% air taxi.
During April–May 2026, the runway underwent a reconstruction project.[5] The runway was originally expected to reopen May 22, 2026, but work was completed earlier and the runway reopened May 15.[6]
