Wayne Executive Jetport (ICAO: KGWW, FAA LID: GWW) is a public use airport three miles north of Goldsboro, in Wayne County, North Carolina. The airport is owned by Wayne County.[1] It was formerly Goldsboro-Wayne Municipal Airport, when it was owned by both City of Goldsboro and Wayne County.[2]

Many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA. However, this airport is assigned GWW by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA. [3] The GWW code is not currently used by the IATA,[4] but it was previously assigned to the former RAF Gatow in Berlin, Germany.[5]

Facilities[]

The airport covers 249 acres (101 ha) at an elevation of 133 feet (41 m). Its single runway, 5/23, is 5,500 by 100 feet (1,676 x 30 m) asphalt.[1]

In the year ending May 26, 2011 the airport had 16,200 aircraft operations, average 44 per day: 82% general aviation, 12% air taxi, and 6% military. 48 aircraft were then based at this airport: 81% single-engine, 10% multi-engine, 4% jet, 2% helicopter, and 2% glider.[1]
