Weaver s landing at the london corbin airport


London-Corbin Airport (IATA: LOZ, ICAO: KLOZ, FAA LID: LOZ), also known as Magee Field, is a general aviation airport located in Laurel County, Kentucky, three nautical miles (6 km) south of the central business district of London and about 12 miles north of Corbin. The airport is operated by both cities. It is not currently served by scheduled airline service, though service was once available on US Airways Express dba Air Kentucky and Tennessee Airways. Prior to the passage of the Airline Deregulation Act, the airport was served by Piedmont Airlines (1948-1989) turboprops, including the Fairchild Hiller FH-227 and the NAMC YS-11.
