Fostoria Metropolitan Airport (ICAO: KFZI, FAA LID: FZI) is a city-owned public airport two miles northeast of Fostoria, Ohio.[1] The FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009-2013 classified it as a general aviation airport.[2]

Most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, but this airport is FZI to the FAA and has no IATA code.
