On Wednesday, North Platte Regional Airport staff supported the crop dusters called in to assist with the fires south of North Platte along Highway 83. Our airport grass truck was also on scene to help with the firefighting efforts.

We appreciate everyone who worked together to help contain the fire and protect our community. Thank you to all the firefighters, pilots, and mutual aid crews for your dedication.

Our parking lot expansion is taking shape!

The new concrete has been poured and just needs a few more days to cure. Once it's cured, we'll add the parking lines and open it to the public, providing 30 additional parking spaces for our passengers and visitors.
