Facilities and aircraft

Danville Regional Airport covers an area of 800 acres (320 ha) at an elevation of 571 feet (174 m) above mean sea level. It has two asphalt paved runways: 2/20 is 5,900 by 100 feet (1,798 x 30 m) and 13/31 is 3,910 by 100 feet (1,192 x 30 m).

For the 12-month period ending August 31, 2014, the airport had 20,773 aircraft operations, an average of 57 per day: 99% general aviation and <1% military. In January 2017, there were 38 aircraft based at this airport: 33 single-engine, 3 multi-engine and 2 jets.

Taxiway revamp

In early January 2017, the City Council of Danville approved a 3.1 million dollar project to rebuild taxiway "A" at the airport while narrowing it to 35 feet. The project is being completed due to the ever increasing poor state of taxiway "A". Construction work is scheduled to begin in March 2017.
