Kit Carson County Airport (ICAO: KITR, FAA LID: ITR, formerly 5C0) is in Kit Carson County, Colorado, three miles south of Burlington, which owns it. The FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009–2013 categorized it as a general aviation facility.

Many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, but this airport is ITR to the FAA and has no IATA code (Itumbiara in Goiás, Brazil has IATA code ITR).

Facilities

The airport covers 684 acres (277 ha) at an elevation of 4,219 feet (1,286 m). Its one runway, 15/33, is 5,201 by 75 feet (1,585 x 23 m) asphalt.

In 2007, the airport had 7,713 aircraft operations at an average of 21 per day: 95% general aviation and 5% air taxi. 20 aircraft were then based at the airport, all single-engine.
