## Description

Runway 01/19 at Alpena County Regional Airport (APN/KAPN) is 9,001 ft (2,744 m) of grooved concrete with 1,000 ft overruns at each end — dimensions driven by the military, not by cargo demand. The county-owned field is shared with the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center of the Air National Guard, and a two-year, roughly USD 60 million federal rebuild left the runway able to handle F-35, KC-46 and C-17 aircraft. Scheduled passenger service is provided by SkyWest on behalf of Delta Air Lines, twelve round trips a week to Detroit Metropolitan (DTW) under an Essential Air Service contract subsidised by the US Department of Transportation at about USD 5.5 million a year. Air freight is limited: FedEx Feeder links Alpena with Flint (FNT), and the airport operates no dedicated cargo terminal for larger consignments. Shippers in this industrial and forestry region of north-east Michigan therefore truck volume freight down US-23 and M-32 to the Michigan gateways at Detroit Metropolitan and Flint Bishop. DTW is the practical point for import and export customs clearance, while the Port Huron/Sarnia crossing remains the usual road route for traffic moving to Ontario.
